I have a self-extracting archive application, and I thought it would be cool to make the app launch itself upon HotSync. I put in code to handle the sysAppLaunchCmdSyncNotify launch code, but found that DmFindDatabase (to get the app's dbID using its database name) does not work in this context - the find fails.
Does anybody know why? If instead I use DmGetNextDatabaseByTypeCreator, I can find the app, but unfortunately, calling SysUIAppSwitch to launch the app with the cardNo and dbID from this call returns a normal status, but the app isn't launched (the HotSync app remains on the screen). Why doesn't this work? Thanks, Mark Peters -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
