Adding a button event to the Queue will execute whatever application is
assigned to it through the Preferences panel.. to actually launch hotsync,
you can use the following code snippet:
What you need to do is launch the HotSync manager with either the
sysAppLaunchCmdSyncRequestLocal or sysAppLaunchCmdSyncRequestRemote command.
You can use SysAppLaunch or SysUIAppSwitch function to do it.
Err StartLocalHotsync(UInt alertbox)
{
Err err;
DmSearchStateType searchState;
UInt cardNo;
LocalID dbID;
// find hotsync and launch it
err = DmGetNextDatabaseByTypeCreator (true, &searchState,
sysFileTApplication,
sysFileCSync, true,
&cardNo, &dbID);
if (err)
FrmAlert(alertbox);
else
err = SysUIAppSwitch(cardNo, dbID, sysAppLaunchCmdSyncRequestLocal,
NULL);
return err;
}
(sysFileCSync is declared in SystemResources.h, by the way)
