I am working with codewarrior writing a program that stores this
information:
typedef struct
{
short dia;
short mes;
short anio;
} Fecha;
typedef struct
{
short id;
Fecha captacion;
char asignado[80];
char contrato[80];
char empresa[80];
char legal[80];
char contactar[80];
char puesto[80];
short estudios;
char rfc[80];
} Cliente;
with this method:
static Boolean CreateClientDB(void)
{
Err err = false;
Cliente *clientePtr = NULL;
UInt16 count = 0;
MemHandle record;
Char *pChar = 0;
UInt16 length = 0;
UInt16 offset = 0;
if (StrCompare(clienteActual.rfc, "")==0)
{
FrmCustomAlert(OkAlert, "no guardado, debe ingresar el
RFC", NULL, NULL);
err = 1;
return err;
}
clientePtr = &clienteActual;
if (dbP==NULL)
dbP = DmOpenDatabaseByTypeCreator('DATA', 'STRT',
dmModeReadWrite);
else
{
DmCloseDatabase(dbP);
dbP = DmOpenDatabaseByTypeCreator('DATA', 'STRT',
dmModeReadWrite);
}
err = DmGetLastErr();
// create a new record at the end of a database (that gives
// us a handle) and turn it into a pointer.
count = DmNumRecords (dbP);
if (positionActual==0)
record = DmNewRecord (dbP, &count, sizeof(Cliente));
else
record = DmGetRecord (dbP, positionActual-1);
err = DmGetLastErr();
pChar = (Char *) MemHandleLock (record);
// Write to the database with DmWrite (since writing through
// the pointer won't work).
err = DmWriteCheck(pChar, 0, sizeof(Cliente));
err = DmWrite (pChar, 0, &clienteActual, sizeof(Cliente));
// Then, unlock the handle and release the record.
MemHandleUnlock (record);
if (positionActual==0)
positionActual=count+1;
DmReleaseRecord (dbP, positionActual-1, true);
SortDB();
FrmCustomAlert(OkAlert, "salvado", NULL, NULL);
return err;
}
It used to work, i even used a conduit but there was a problem with a
real
handheld so I changed all of my MemPtrNew calls to MemHandleNew and
MemHandleLock and then it started to store garbage in my db althought
the
application seems to read it fine I check it outside the app (with the
conduit and a pdb reader) and it seems that I only have garbage.
