Hey, that looks familiar... For the record, we eventually abandoned that approach, since it caused us far too much pain for the results we were seeing. However, the path we were going down when we abandoned it may have worked if we followed it longer. Specifically, create stub objects on the client side which basically proxy access to the shared library, and call shared library functions which turn into C++ method calls. Contact me off-list if you would like a better description of what I'm talking about. (I should probably mention that I don't think it allows two out of your three requirements, so it's likely of no use to you, but if you want to try doing it, I'll be more than happy to tell you what we did.) Good luck, Blake. -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
