Software Bug/Comment:
Hi! I love your Pilot-DB program! I just have one question, though: is it possible to sort one column and then do a subsorting on a second column? That is, can I sort the first column (say, alphabetically) and then have the database retain the first column's sorting while I sort a second column , say, numerically? Thanks!

Confirmed on mine.
A couple other things:
-Is there a memory overwrite or variable initialization issue with
calculated fields?  New equation fields always have random characters
in them that need to be deleted.
-On several of my databases, the DPad on my Tungsten C works fine to
select records, but if I filter to a less than full display of
records, the DPad still works to select, but the highlight bar is
invisible.  It's fine again when I turn the filter off.
-Could we get a custom VFS plugin with the location set to
/palm/programs/pilot-db where the data should really be, rather than
/palm/launcher?  Or would it be safe to hex edit the /palm/launcher/
line in the existing plugin?


> PS: How do you change the name of a database once you have created it?

Tap on the database icon in the database list view, and select
"rename" from the popup menu.

Yes i wil do it, in few days. I wanted to add more features
first, but i'm on another project (a small Mail application).

[pilot-db-list] Issue with DB v.1.1.2 on a Palm Tungsten C

[Peter C. <pch...@cf...>]

The Palm OS Version is 5.2.1

I just loaded the system on, and put a database in. I have been trying to
run sort on it (Optians/Sort). Once I click "Sort", no matter what I select
for options, I get the following message: Emul68KMain.c, Line:456, Line
1111 Exception at address 01CAE220. (Actually, the address changes each
time, but the 2 line numbers stay the same).  Am I doing something wrong,
could the database itself be broken. I have attached the DB file to this
email.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

ended up doing it with a utility called "FileZ"

[pilot-db-list] Field Editing Hacks

[Tom V. <tw...@ss...>]

One of my databases uses a lot of (>32) fields, with many views. And I 
chose to leave certain, infrequently used, fields out of _any_ view -- 
if I need them, I get them through the Edit Record dialog. I'm 
wondering about usability...

1. It first strikes me that I'd like best to be able to tap on a record 
near a particular field to bring up the Edit Record dialog 
_already_scrolled_and_focused_on_the_tapped_field_for_immediate_editing_
so that I don't have to hunt for my interesting field to edit it. I 
think I wouldn't want text selected, just the cursor at the start of 
the field (if appropriate).

2. Alternately, I suppose I could set the "use this view to edit 
record" checkbox, but then I wouldn't be able to reach all fields. And 
if in such a restricted edit view I toggle the "All" button in the 
upper right hand corner, I again lose my place, the edit record dialog 
being repositioned at the top of my list of fields -- could the field 
I'm focused in remain in the top or center of the screen when "All" is 
toggled?.

3. Or, should I just add a set of extra "Edit-only" views that include 
the hidden fields? E.g. for travel & expense, I already have a Lodging 
view which includes only about 7 relevant fields but leaves out the 
often unused "Reservation Confirmation Number"; should I add a Lodging-
Edit view which includes it rather than defaulting to the All Fields 
view to find it when I might need it?

Any experiences or suggestions which way would be best?

Finally, I also wish for an addition to List field drop-downs in the 
Edit Record dialog: "Edit List..." that takes me to the List editing 
dialog for that field, allowing me to modify the valid entries for a 
List field from the Edit Record dialog (and then rebuilding the 
database), without having to jump over to the Edit Database dialog.

Thanks again.

Hello
I suppose that you already know this bug; but I report it...
On my Clie T675C, Palm OS v4.1, 3.4Mb/15Mb free, I used the v1.1.1 with several databases without problem.
Since I updated in the latest version, the command 'Sort Database' occurs a 'Fatal Exception' error, with asking a soft reset.
As I got a Clie TH-55, Palm OS v5.2.1, 25.3Mb/ 32Mb free, I installed Pilot-DB v1.1.2; I just created a simple base with only two fields; I entered 2 records into; the command 'Sort Database' occurs a 'Fatal Exception' error too, but the message is more significative:
Emul68KMain.c, Line:456, line 1111 exception at address 00E13DF0
then again with asking a soft reset.
I hope this could be helped you; and if you need other information, feel free to email me.

Configure takes the results of its investigations and creates a makefile
based on what it discovered.  It looks like it put its results into
`./confstathL1hTR/out', and is attempting to move that file into the src
directory as "Makefile".

If it can't do so, likely reasons are

1) the src directory exists but the permissions on it won't allow configure
to write to it

2) the src directory *doesn't* exist, and configure either has no provision
to create it, or does not have permission to make the directory under
whatever directory it happens to be in

We'd need to know more about your setup, like where you put the DB stuff
before you ran configure, to say much more.

And judging from the warnings, you'll have other problems, as you don't have
a gcc cross-compiler installed that configure can locate.  If you are trying
to build DB from source, the target processor is a Mororola 68K device.
Stock gcc under Linux on a Intel box generates code for Intel processors.
You need a version of GCC set up to generate Motorola code to get anywhere.

[pilot-db-list] Boolean Fields and More

[Tom V. <tw...@co...>]

Clie SJ22, 320x320, 1.1.2

1. Is there a way to set the default value of booleans (checked instead 
of unchecked)?

2. Can a boolean's checkbox be toggled by tapping it in list view 
instead of having to edit the whole record and then scroll to find the 
checkbox and then save the editted record? I suppose tapping in a 
record _near_ a checkbox would mean "toggle", and tapping a record not 
near a checkbox would mean "edit record", as it does now.

3. I can't sort even on one field, let alone two, without having to 
reset my handheld, ragrdless of database. I hope this can be fixed.

4. In an earlier post I asked if some sort of stylus-based record 
selection in list view could be implemented. I notice that some records 
will change either their text or background color when dragged over, 
but it doesn't seem to effect a "selection". Perhaps this feature is 
already partially implemented?

5. In the Edit List View and Edit Filters dialogues, when I create a 
new View or Filter, could it be automatically selected?

6. I agree with a previous poster that the entire Note body should be 
searched (I'll add: and displayed as much as will fit in list view), 
not just the first line. If there's a concern about search performance 
in certain databases, add a checkbox in the search/filter dialog to the 
effect of "search only the first line of Note fields" -- and make that 
unchecked by default.

I keep finding new uses for db. Thanks again!

[pilot-db-list] Note field searches

[Jurrie L. <jur...@ya...>]

It appears that DB searches of Note fields terminate
at the first <newline> character in the field.

Is there any way to search the entire contents of
these fields?  If not, is there any chance of this
being added in the future?

Alternatively, is there another recommended character
that can be used instead of <newline> to separate
lines/items in a Note field?

I'm using DB v. 1.1.2 (22 Dec 2004)

[pilot-db-list] Bug Report & Feature Request(s)

[Tom V. <tw...@ss...>]

First: Thank you for this very useful piece of software. I'm running on 
a Clie SJ22, color 320x320. I am impressed with the control of the 
database structure and editing of the fields. And I really like the 
fine text that lets me see 21 lines of my table, plus headers!

Since I see 1.1.3 around the corner, I have a bug, and a request. I 
don't see these in the mailing list archives; if I missed them and am 
redundant, apologies.

1. Among many other things, I was trying to see if I could use this as 
a note taker. I set up a simple database of two-field records, the 
first an auto-date-stamp (nice), the second a note. I expected that if 
I set the note field's width to 280 pixels, in the list view I would 
see as many characters of the note body as fit in 280 pixels with the 
smaller font, not just the first line of the note -- in hi-resolution 
list view, half my field is empty. Can this be fixed for the next 
version?

2. Then I also noticed that I cannot paste multi-line text from the 
clipboard ("upstroke-P") into the note field in the record editing 
dialog -- I expected the text to be wrapped into the note body as 
needed.

3. For editing a "new" record -- in the record edit dialog, can the 
cursor be initialized (focused) to the first field without a default or 
incremented value, to save a tap?

4. And the full-screen note dialog doesn't support any upstroke 
commands (or an Edit menu) at all. No Cut, Copy, Paste. Can this be 
fixed for the next version?

5. I liked that I could add a field to records in an existing database. 
It would be even more helpful if the default value of the new field 
would be copied into all existing records as the database is rebuilt, 
not just inserted into subsequent new records.

6. One column I tried to add was to contain only column separation -- I 
have an eight column table, and I didn't want to give up all the screen 
space required for column separators between all columns, when I 
visually needed it only between the 4th and 5th. Why wasn't I permitted 
to make the field only 4 or 5 pixels wide (to hold the "|" character?

7. Further, as I played more with the record edit dialog and the note 
dialog, I noticed that the field displayed in the record edit dialog 
isn't a simple reflection of, or a window onto, the first line of the 
note by default. The tool is providing essentially two fields for a 
note, a title distinct from the body, and once you edit in the note 
dialog you can tap a checkbox to have the note body's first 32 
characters copied into the title which is the only thing showing in the 
list view. This was counter-intuitive to me.

For example, I expected that if I entered text into the note's field in 
the record edit dialog, as I entered the last character that would fit 
on the line (or I entered a "Carriage Return"), the note entry dialog 
would automatically pop-up, with my already entered text at the top, 
word-wrapped as necessary, ready for me to continue entering the rest 
of the note. If my note was very short and fit entirely on the line, 
the full screen note dialog would not pop up. Later, if I edited the 
text of the first line of the note in either dialog, that change would 
be reflected in both dialogs. Is it possible to provide a global 
preference to select the windowed-style I've just described, instead of 
the original two-field style?

8. Finally, I discovered the Delete Records command in list view, which 
seemed more convenient than deleting individual records from within the 
record edit dialog. Is it possible to provide a mechanism by which a 
record or range of records could be "selected" to be deleted (cut X or 
in some future: duplicated D, moved M, copied C, or pasted P)? Maybe by 
highlighting the first and last column of pixels in the affected rows, 
or changing the background coloring of the rows. As you guessed, this 
idea occurred to me just after I deleted _all_ records in my database 
with this command :-). I recognize that to do this, you might need to 
redefine single-tap to mean "select", and move "edit record" to double-
tap.

Anyone agree or disagree with any of the observations above? Anyways, 
don't get me wrong -- this is a very handy program to have on my 
handheld. Thank you again for all your efforts.

[pilot-db-list] compiling pilot-db and language overlay

[Ramon L. <rl...@te...>]

Thanks to Tony McNamara for the suggestions.
I finally got an overlay-es.prc with the translation I made by using
make overlay-es.prc. I have tried it and it works well.

However I could never build the final db.prc neither with sdk-4 nor with sdk-5. In both 
cases the process stops with an error. When I used sdk-5 release 3 make halted 
while parsing:

/scr/double.c:38 ... #include <PalmOS Glue.h>
and later at
/scr/grids/standard.c:42  ... # include "../list.h"

Indeed if I comment out these lines of code I finally get a db.prc that seems to work. 
So that I think that this error is related to this sdk5-r3. I used cygwin.

Yes, it's supposed to.
I never tried it myself.

[pilot-db-list] help compiling pilot-db

[Ramon L. <rl...@te...>]

Hi,
I have translated the latest sample.rcp into spanish. (this corresponds to pilot-db 
v1.1.2) because the included translation is outdated.  But I cannot compile the source 
as instructed. I am using Cygwin with prc-tools 2.3 and PilRC 3.2. ./configure 
executes without problems. First, I have tried to compile the source with sdk-4 as 
stated in building.text. Make ends with errors. I checked makefile and it seems that 
sdk5 is required as the option 
PALMOS=-palmos5
is at the top. So I tried with the latest sdk-5r3, and it goes a little deeper in the 
process but again finishes with errors.

I have compiled several small applications with no problem with my setup. Can 
someone help?. Maybe one of the admins?. I could also send the es.rcp to be 
included in the package.

Software Bug/Comment:
When starting DB I get the message "The Help.rcp file is not installed...".  Where would I find this file to install it or is it something that should already be there?

Thanks,

BTW, noone mentioned palm-db-tools. The last released version is quite
old, but I have a patch pending that makes it import/export scripts and
filters. That's the only way to import/export them currently. It's in
<http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/~didi/palm-db-tools-with-filters-and-scripts.patch>,
and I can give you linux binaries if needed (and maybe even Windows ones,
but I do not have ones ready).
