Bug in PalmOS 5.0's DlkUserInfo structure

[Jeff Ishaq]

Hi folks.  I'm toying with the HotSync info on a PalmOS 5 device.  It is in 
a different format than previous versions of the OS.  See my info from a 
previous post:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/conduit-dev-forum/message/11050

First of all, the DlkUserInfo structures, as defined in 
Incs\Core\System\DlServer.h, have not been updated in the PalmOS 5.0 
SDK.  The dlkUserInfoPrefVersion is still 0x0102, when in fact PalmOS 5.0 
will report 0x0201.  Also, if you cast a pointer to the sysResIDDlkUserInfo 
resource to a DlkUserInfoType ptr, the nameAndLog elements appear to be 
invalid.  This furthers my claim.

Is there any information on the new format of the sysResIDDlkUserInfo 
resource used in PalmOS 5.0 (i.e., version 0x0201)?  It seems as if the use 
of the length fields 'userNameLen' and 'syncLogLen' has been deprecated, 
but I'm curious about any other changes, as well.

Thanks,
-Jeff Ishaq
