I have seen numerous posts on how to do threads in Palm OS. The official answer has been, "you can't". But I have seen an unsupported way to do it using the sysAppLaunchFlagNewThread with a SysAppLaunch() call from:
http://flippinbits.com/twiki/bin/view/FAQ/HowDoICreateAThread I have tested this and successfully run an app in the background as a thread. I can launch other apps and the original app is still running. My app does not use any global or static variables. Now I know there have been strong warning against this technique as it is not officially supported by the OS but it has worked reliably for me. I am wondering what the exact issues/dangers are with doing this? -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
