I need some help with a problem...hoping someone can help me. Im trying to
search the databases on a device. My problem occurs when I find a database
that is a resource database. I am using DmFindResource(dbHandle, 'code', 1,
NULL); to find the index of the resorce database the code 1 data is located
at. For every resource database I find, the returned vaule for the index is
0xFFFF (-1). This causes the following call to return an index out of range
error. DmGetResourceIndex(dbHandle, index2); Below is the section of code
that the above function calls are found in...
//get the info about the current database
DmDatabaseInfo(cardNo, dbIDP, dbNameP, &dbAttr, &dbVersion, NULL,
&dbModDate, NULL,
NULL, NULL, NULL, &dbType, &dbCreator);
//open the first database
dbHandle = DmOpenDatabase(cardNo, dbIDP, dmModeReadOnly |
dmModeShowSecret);
//check if the database is a resource database
if(dbAttr & dmHdrAttrResDB)
{
//get resource index
UInt16 index2;
index2 = DmFindResource(dbHandle, 'code', 1, NULL);
h = DmGetResourceIndex(dbHandle, index2);
error = DmGetLastErr();
//lock the database and get a pointer to its data
// p = MemHandleLock(h);
