IR print NEC Superscript

[Harry Yeh]

I have an NEC superscript 1800 with the Irda interface. Any suggestions on
how to print to it? Anybody have any good resources on writing printer
drivers?

Thanks

Database Search with Packed Records

[Harry Yeh]

I have read some of the posts regarding fast database searches. I am
wondering how fast search would be done with packed records, since I was
told and learned that record storage should be used with packed records.
However, I am not sure about how to do sorting with null terminated strings.
Here is an example of my structs:


struct{
int iD;
char * Text[];
}packedProduct;

struct{
int ID;
char* SKU;
char* UPC;
}Product;

Thanks All!

Harry

Hey Guys

I found that the symbol sdk Supports printing, and I was playing around with
the Postscript and it seems to work without any sort of printer driver.
Fortunately I am only printing text right now, don't know what is going to
happy with Graphics though :o

Generic Data Structures

[Harry Yeh]

Is it possible to create a generic data structure so that when you add more
columns to a record, you don't have to keep rewriting all the functions
associated with the struct?

Here is my example:

struct
{
Int16 ID;
*Char Name;
}Product

if I needed to add 1 more type or more, I always have to redifne my struct
and procedures, conduits etc.

{
Int16 ID;
*Char Name;
*Char Description;
}

I am wondering what techniques you can use to create generic structures
without having to rewrite all you structs and functions conduits. Any
examples or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Harry

IR Printing

[Harry Yeh]

I am interested in adding printing to my application but I notice there is
not much out there regarding how to write an app to add IR printing. Could
anybody point me to some resources? I know about all the 3rd party addons to
develop for but for me this is more of a personal interest.

I know i probably have to write a driver (using canon bjc50). Thanks!

Harry
