Hi,
Thanks for the responses!
Below is actually how I started out and had the same results.
if (addToList)
{
UInt32 len = StrLen(packBuffer);
MemHandle packH = MemHandleNew(len + 1);
Char* packP = (Char*)MemHandleLock(packH);
MemMove(packP, packBuffer, len + 1);
gPackList[indexLst] = (Char*)packP;
indexLst++;
MemHandleUnlock(packH);
packH = 0;
}
It actually runs on all the Palms(PalmIII, Zire, m505, Zire 71, Zire 72)
that I have tested it on. However, it always gives the "unlocked chunk of
memory" error when I use the emulator. It is my understanding the emulator
is more sensitive to memory errors and is a great diagnostic tool. Should I
trust the emulator's diagnosis? Any other ideas?
Best Regards,
Chris Engler
