Hi all.
I'm developing an app in which I'll be able to select a file to send to a
remote device via BT using the Exchange Manger API.
At the present I've only been able to create a list of all the available
databases at the Palm like this :
SysCreateDataBaseList(sysFileTApplication,0,&wNumDBsFound,&haItems,true);
if (haItems) paItems= (SysDBListItemType*)MemHandleLock(haItems);
dBName = (Char *) MemPtrNew(sizeof(paItems[listSel].name));
StrCopy(dBName,paItems[listSel].name);
dBIDNo = paItems[listSel].dbID;
dBCardNo = paItems[listSel].cardNo;
MemHandleFree(haItems);
haItems= NULL;
and the following code enables me to send files :
static void SendFile(){
Err err;
//ExgSocketType exgSocket;
UInt32 sendNameSize=0;
UInt32 btFullURLSize;
btFullURLSize =
sizeof(StrCat(mySendScheme,"/xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx/"));//defines the maximum
size of the URL used for sending, excluding the filename
MemSet(&exgSocket,sizeof(exgSocket),0);
sendNameSize = sizeof(dBName);
sendName = (Char *) MemPtrNew(btFullURLSize+sendNameSize);//allocates the
memory necessary to indicate the the sending scheme, device to send to and
filename
ConvertBdAddrToStr(&gBdAddr[gSelectedBdAddr],gBtLibRefNum, gBdAddrStr);
StrCopy(sendName,mySendScheme);
StrCat(sendName,"/");
StrCat(sendName,(Char *)gBdAddrStr);
StrCat(sendName,"/");
StrCat (sendName,dBName);
exgSocket.name = sendName;
//FrmCustomAlert(Debug,"sendName -> ",sendName,"");
err = ExgPut(&exgSocket);
if (err == 0){
err = ExgDBWrite(WriteProc, &exgSocket, NULL, dBIDNo, dBCardNo);
ExgDisconnect(&exgSocket,err);
}
else FrmCustomAlert(Debug,"erro ",ConvertBtErrToString(err),"");
}
with this code I can only get the database from an app
My questions are as follow :
1 - dBName is just the name of the app without extension right(e.g.
Blueboard instead of Blueboard.pdb)? if so when I do exgSocket.name = dBName
does the exchange manager knows I'm sendig a database because of the
parameters in ExgDBWrite or does an error occur? In the latter how do I get
the extension of a file?
2 - the pda is able to receive file of any type(jpeg,wav,mpeg,etc) as long
it has an app registered to handle that type. My problem is how do I select
a particular file instead of the database for posterior sending? That is
instead of sending myJPEGViewer.pdb being able to send myJPEG.jpg?
Any help would be great.
Thx for the attention.
