It would be cool if the SDK came with like, the code to the Memo application or something.
You could write to the HotSync log file. This can then be viewed from the [Log] button under HotSync, plus it is very easy to display in your program. The only problem is that it is quite small, so you can't write a large trace to it.
For example: void WriteLogEntry (const Char *text, Boolean isAppend = true); // declaration
// function
void WriteLogEntry (const Char *text, Boolean isAppend) {
DlkSetLogEntry(text, StrLen (text), isAppend);
DlkSetLogEntry("\n", 1, true);
}Then you can the DlkGetSyncInfo() function (which is documented) to retrieve the entire log file.
