If you are crashing during reset, you are most likely trying to access global variables during the reset launch code. Get rid of the access of globals and you won't have your infinite reset problem and then you can move on to your other problems. It seems that most of the time people are having this problem it's because they tried to store their version number for the RomCompatibilityCheck in a global....

I've been using procedure pointers to this point, since the notification is only supposed to run when my application is running. However, I've found that if my application crashes and the user has to reset the Palm device, it gets caught in an infinite loop of crashing as it is trying to restart itself. It probably isn't really necessary to go this far, but I've been doing factory default restarts to get out of this. I do not want users having to do this! Now, obviously I'm going to fix all the crashes in my application. But at the same time, there's no way I want to leave the Palm in this state under any circumstancs. So I have to use launch codes. So... when I get a new launch code, that's really a new instance of my application, right? How do I tell if there's another instance of my application running? (If I do this blindly, I'll be no better off than before.) How do I "get to" the old instance? What exactly does "get to" mean in this context? I have three notifications: The first is for device wake up; it presents a password entry screen if Palm OS password protection is off. This is intended to bglock users from using my app, but not others. The other two are for card insert/eject. I want to change what is on one of my forms depending on the contents of the card (or the lack of a card). How do I do these? If anyone has some sample code that could help me along I'd be grateful. I know I'm probably being annoyingly vague here, so I'm more than ready to supply more information. I'm just not at all sure what's useful. :) Thanks in advance! -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/ ------------------------------------------ The information in this transmittal and any attachments is privileged and confidential and is intended only for the recipient(s) listed above.
