Hello,
Since I'm a Palm OS newbie, I need some help. I'm debugging an applicaiton
using the Emulator and found out that the application sometimes gets "memory
leaks" error.
Ben Combee also suggested that I should use "MemPtrNew" to decrease my stack
size in my previous thread.
So, I've decided I should take a serious look at using "MemPtrNew" and
"MemPtrFree" to make the application more efficient.
However, I don't know how to use them.
This is the existing code in my Pilot Main:
UInt32 PilotMain(UInt16 cmd, MemPtr cmdPBP, UInt16 launchFlags)
{
ContextType context;
UInt16 error;
context.hasGlobals = launchFlags & sysAppLaunchFlagNewGlobals;
if (cmd == sysAppLaunchCmdNormalLaunch)
{ globalContext = &context;
error = AppStart(&context);
if (error) return error;
FrmGotoForm(ID_FORM_LIST);
EventLoop();
AppStop(&context);
return 0;
}
else if .... (codes snipped...)
I use ContextType to store Global variables and it's huge. That's the
problem. I need to free up the resources when ContextType is not used. I
just don't quite understand how to use MemPtrNew to free the memory.
Thanks for your help in advance.
George.
