What I'm doing is: *First record the message and then send. *At the receiving side I'm able to get only one packet and others are lost. Is it possible that using some Multithreading features..i can spawn some process which handles the streaming of outgoing data and incoming data. Or can ne one suggest some thing related to this application..so that data shud appear stream properly. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matthew Bevan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Palm Developer Forum" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, June 09, 2004 11:33 PM Subject: RE: Multi Threading in Palm OS! > I think I'm seeing confusion between the terms multi-thread and multi-task. > PalmOS, even early versions, had a kernel that supported multi-tasking > for system use only, due to the license restrictions in place by the > company who > wrote it.
