SystemInfo

    + SystemInfo

The SystemInfo class contains information about the device on which the application is currently running. This class cannot be instantiated nor derived nor cloned. To get an instance of this class, you must call the global SystemInfo property.

The example below displays the Palm OS^® version on a dialog box:

Private Sub Button1_Click()
  Dim si as SystemInfo

  Set si = SystemInfo
  MsgBox si.VersionString
End Sub

The SystemInfo sample shows an example of the use of this object, by displaying the collection of all available system information.

Note: some functions proposed by this object are also accessible as global functions or properties. This is the case for example for information related to available memory space. It is always preferable both in terms of performance as well as executable size to use these global functions rather than the properties of the SystemInfo object.
