Does anyone know if this API is supposed to support filestream type databases? As best I can tell, it copies them, but they are then corrupt.
Mark, in what sense do these streams become corrupt?
Palm OS 5.0 dox state that file streams are implemented behind-the-scenes as a regular old Palm Database (PDB) format, at least in OS3 (Palm OS 5.0 Programmer's Companion, Vol I, p. 202).
So one would think VFSExportDatabaseToFile() and its reciprocal, VFSImportDatabaseFromFile(), would work fine on such file 'streams'.
One thing that comes to mind is the database header attributes... you might try taking a stream file, VFSExportDatabaseToFile() it, VFSImportDatabaseFromFile() it, and check to see if any of the db header (db name, type, crid, etc) have changed.
Keep me posted.
