Hi,

I want my launcher to launch apps from the sd card properly - I think I
have the basics - but a couple of gaps remain.

What I think I have to do:

1) copy the app to memory
2) copy the app and any apps that have the same creator and the bundled
bit set
3) send SysAppLaunchCmdCardType (using SysAppLaunch?)
4) check the SysAppLaunchCmdCardType - if err has been set to errNone, skip to 6
5) send SysAppLaunchCmdNormalLaunch
6) delete app and any databases with same creator and bundled bit set


Have I got the right idea?

Questions:

How do I get access to SysAppLaunchCmdCardType after it's been modified by the app I launched in order to skip 5 if necessary

What does sysAppLaunchStartFlagNoAutoDelete do? The guide says it stops the vfs manager from deleting the app if the volume is unmounted - what does this mean? Is this a way to cause my app to be installed permanently to memory (I don't want it run from the sd card)

Is there a better way to install my app permanently to memory when it's run from sd?



Thanks in advance,

Rob
