2001/09/22 Dear Listers I have encountered another timing glitch. As you may recall from previous threads, I require to execute an algorithm at regular one second intervals (prototyping on a iiixe). We have a charging cradle from Revolve Designs with the expectation of unlimited on-time. This is an excellent well made product BTW. The problem is that my program appears to be preempted by the OS for about 50 ms each second while the battery is charging which lasts approximately 40 min and occurs at about 18 hour intervals. The result in a 5% error in timing and consequently in the result of the algorithm. My theory is that the OS is updating the battery icon. Is there any way to prevent the OS from reacting to the battery voltage? Does anyone have any other ideas of the cause of the problem. Oh and BTW I managed a work around for the midnight glitch by suspending the computational part of my program for about 30 seconds after the midnight hour. Sincerely and Thanks in advance for any help Herb Valliant -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
