The following code is from a Palm OS book. I am using this to determine the
total number of databases stored with a particular creator ID & type.
if (DmGetNextDatabaseByTypeCreator(true, &searchState, myType, myCreator,
false, &cardNo, &dbID)
{
do {
count++
} while (DmGetNextDatabaseByTypeCreator(false, &searchState, myType,
myCreator, false, &cardNo, &dbID);
}
What does DmGetNextDatabaseByTypeCreator return? Does it only return a
value (dmErrCantFind) when no more of my databases are found? If so, how
does this algorithm work? Will it ever go into the loop if
DmGetNextDatabaseByTypeCreator only returns a value when no more databases
are found? (i.e. The if statement will never be true?)
