Palm Listener utility

For Palm applications using server-initiated synchronization, each client must have a Palm Listener installed. The Listener files are:

  • LsnT650.prc   the Listener on Treo 650

Currently, the Palm Listeners only read from configuration file lsncfg.pdb.

The Palm Listener also allows you to set three options. These options remain until they are explicitly changed or until you perform a reset.

  • Listening   A way to stop the Listener from consuming messages.

  • Enable Actions   This is applicable only when Listening is on. When disabled, no action is invoked.

  • Prompt Before Actions   This is applicable only when actions are enabled. When this option is set, a confirmation window pops up before an action is invoked.

The device need not always be on if it turns on automatically when an SMS message is received. Treo devices do not need to be on for the Listener to work.

A Listener SDK is provided that you can use to create support for other Palm devices. See MobiLink Listener SDK for Palm.
