A potential customer is looking for a stand-alone version of the conduit that can convert the text file to the PDB on the desktop computer without uploading it to the handheld. Rather, they want to create the PDB on the desktop. It looks to me like I need to replace all of the Sync calls. E.g., SyncCreateDB, SyncWriteRec, etc. I have no clue about the file structure of a PDB and have relied on the Sync function calls to read and write my PDBs.
How does one create a database and records without using the Sync calls? Any advice will be really appreciated.
There are some programs that do this already I think, such as par which is included with CodeWarrior. I've not used it myself though.
If you need to do it yourself, the document describing the PDB file structure should be on PalmSource's website. It's a pretty simple format and shouldn't be too hard to write if you need to.
