>I have taken the string keywords/parameters as applying to the >strings written to or read from the phone As an exmample, you're writing a unicode string to the phone and its physical length is more 'sizeinbytes', how would you truncate the string/value/field? >There is a problem at the moment with handling terminators of more >than one byte Untill this issue is addressed, current handling of unicode strings will not work in all cases. >If maintaining compatability with existing code is most important IMHO, I think it is just because we may not have access to all the phones implemented in BitPim to easily make (and test) any updates. >fix the phones that use the string as data to use the DATA class >instead (or list of bytes). Ideally yes, however my previous point stands. -Joe Pham _____________________________________________________________________ Call Anyone, Anytime, Anywhere in the World - FREE!
