Hello,
I have to make a Palm database, I use the example of the O'REILLY book to help me.
It works fine but I don't know how to enter my own record in the database.
Here is the record structure :
typedef struct PackedCustomer{
UInt16 customerID;
Char name[1]; // actually may be longer than 1
} PackedCustomer;
typedef struct Customer{
UInt16 customerID;
const Char *name;
const Char *address;
const Char *city;
const Char *phone;
} Customer;
The autors use this to initialyse the database :
static void InitializeCustomers(void)
{
Customer c1 = {1, "Joe's toys-1", "123 Main St." ,"Anytown",
"(123) 456-7890"};
Customer c2 = {2, "Bucket of Toys-2", "" ,"", ""};
Customer c3 = {3, "Toys we be-3", "" ,"", ""};
Customer c4 = {4, "a", "" ,"", ""};
Customer c5 = {5, "b", "" ,"", ""};
Customer c6 = {6, "c", "" ,"", ""};
Customer c7 = {7, "d", "" ,"", ""};
Customer *customers[7];
UInt16 numCustomers = sizeof(customers) / sizeof(customers[0]);
UInt16 i;
MemHandle h;
UInt16 index;
Customer c1;
customers[0] = &c1;
customers[1] = &c2;
customers[2] = &c3;
customers[3] = &c4;
customers[4] = &c5;
customers[5] = &c6;
customers[6] = &c7;
for (i = 0; i < numCustomers; i++)
{
index = dmMaxRecordIndex;
h = DmNewRecord(gDBC, &index, 1);
if (h) {
PackCustomer(customers[i], h);
DmReleaseRecord(gDBC, index, true);
}
}
}
But I would like to fill my database on my own, I don't want this : " Customer c1 =
{1, "Joe's toys-1", "123 Main St." ,"Anytown",
"(123) 456-7890"}; "
I have tried this :
c1.customerID = 1;
StrCopy(c1.name,"test");
But on StrCopy, the compilation failed.
Is someone have an idea it would be extremely helpful.
Thanks in advance
Helene
