All, Palm Reporter 1.2 has been released. The Palm Reporter is a trace utility that can be used together with the Palm OS Emulator. Applications running inside the Emulator can send information in real-time to the Reporter. This information can help to pinpoint problems that would be hard to troubleshoot executing code step by step or setting breakpoints. To observe traces, simply run your application and the Reporter at the same time. The Windows version can be downloaded here: http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/tools/emulator/reporter_12.zip A few system updates may be necessary if you are running Windows 95, 98 or NT. They are described in the "troubleshooting" section of the documentation. The Mac version is available here: http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/tools/emulator/reporter_12.sit These archives contain both the sender library that is used by POSE and the viewer application that will display the traces. The library should be copied to the folder where the Palm OS Emulator is located. After that, you should be able to set the trace target to "Reporter" in POSE's tracing options, and to run the sample PRC provided with the Reporter. The tracing API is a subset of the HostControl interface. You can find sample tracing code in the Reporter's documentation. The 1.2 version fixes the crash that was happening on Windows 2000, and introduces a mechanism for curstomizing the filters list. -- Patrick Porlan, Ronald Tessier -- Palm, Inc. -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
