Two questions: 1)I need to implement a large help screen, essentially an enormous text field that can scroll i guess, like 2000 characters or more. Does anyone have any recommendations as to how I store this text? The only option I see is using a Field and store the text screen in a huge Char *. Labels seem to small to store the text so what else is there?
2)I am trying to set a field with a string and I keep getting memory errors. I know i am just not allocating the memory properly, could someone show me how to do this properly. I have tried SetFieldTextFromStr as well the error is in how I am allocating the constant string(lack of c): Char * someText = new Char[20]; StrCopy(someText, "A bunch of text\0"); FieldType * aFieldPtr = ( FieldType *) GetObjectPtr<FieldType>(TextField); FldDelete( aFieldPtr 0, FldGetMaxChars( aFieldPtr) ); FldInsert( aFieldPtr someText, StrLen(somText) );//ERROR HERE Thanks a bunch -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
