Auto application termination

[Dana Long]

My application needs to go back to its login form if there is no user 
input for a specific period of time. I am using AlmSetAlarm() and launch 
code sysAppLaunchCmdDisplayAlarm to do this.

In my AppHandleEvent() function I set the alarm to expire in N seconds. 
Each time the user performs an action, the alarm is reset. I handle the 
sysAppLaunchCmdDisplayAlarm command in StarterPalmMain() by calling 
AppStop(), then AppStart() and then FrmGotoForm(LoginForm). When the 
application exits I cancel any pending alarm so it won't occure while 
I'm outside the application. This seems to work fine.

Is there a better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do? This seems 
kind of kludgy to me.

Thanks,
Dana
