Ben,
I downloaded Palm_SDK_Headers.zip from pluggedin.palm.com but didn't find any
mention of HsExtKeyboardEnable. I did, however, find mention of the systrap
HsSelExtKeyboardEnable, so when I added the following prototype to my own code:
Err HsExtKeyboardEnable (Boolean enable)
SYS_SEL_TRAP (sysTrapHsSelector, hsSelExtKeyboardEnable);
And compiled, I got the following message:
In file included from /PalmDev/sdk-5r4/include/Common/HsCommon.h:81,
from /PalmDev/sdk-5r4/include/68K/Hs.h:30,
from ../golog.c:8:
/PalmDev/sdk-5r4/include/Common/Libraries/PmKeyLib/PmKeyLibCommon.h:32:
palmOneSystemCommon.h: No such file or directory
I remedied this by adding
"$(SDK_LOCATION)/include/common/system"
to my list of includes for the compiler. After that, it compiled with no
problem.
Two questions:
1) did I miss something with the HsExtKeyboardEnable function? I would have
expected a prototype to be defined in the Palm SDK header files someplace.
2) I thought that the compiler would search everything under the /include
directory for the necessary headers. How come I have to add this directory to
my includes for the compiler?
Thanks for your help -
Dave Ek
