StrLen(ptr) vs. StrLen(ptr) + 1? Sounds like you've lost the null somewhere....
-----Original Message----- From: Larry Gilbert [mailto:stolen-from-palmos@;l2g.to] Sent: Monday, November 04, 2002 2:27 PM To: Palm Developer Forum Subject: Form field wields unusual superpowers :-) Hello all, I'm trying to track down a strange bug involving a single field in one of my app's forms. So far I am stumped. If I do a paste to this field, about 95% of the time it will crash or hang the entire system. This seems to be independent of the OS (3.0 or newer) or the environment (Palm ROM, HandEra ROM, native hardware, POSE). Also, on OS 3.5 or newer, calling up the menu toolbar when that field has focus also causes the system to crash or hang (which makes sense, since it has to access the field to decide which buttons to make visible, but that doesn't get me much closer to figuring out what's in that field that makes things go so wrong). The kicker is that cut, copy, and undo works just fine in that field. And no other field on another form exhibits this antisocial behavior. I'm using PRC-Tools (gcc version 2.95.3-kgpd), PilRC 2.8p7, and Palm SDK 5 under Linux 2.4.17.
