Re: Classic emulator interface on Palm Pre
Palm did buy a perpetual license to use and extend what is now called Garnet oS P.

One thing I cannot understand. If Palm has the source code for the OS, the source code for the Windows Simulator, how hard would it be for them to port it to the Pre? Why do they have to outsource it to a 3rd party, and make users buy it? Unless the underlying OS of the Pre is so bad, that they couldn't do it themslves! Lionscribe Palm does not own Palm OS.

Re: Ubuntu Linux Palm OS development?
If you want a native toolchain, GCC for Palm OS (Prc-Tools) is your only choice. POSE uses the GCC compiler for 68K code anyway. You should be able to use your favorite editor or IDE. P.

Re: Sending a Contact
Yes, you want the _send scheme. The exchange library is fairly straightforward -- you could do the main coding in a day, but you might not get it fully debugged. I've never implemented a transport myself. P. Douglas Reeder sent from my Palm OS Treo 650 -Original Message- From: Philip Sheard [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subj: Re: Sending a Contact Date: Sat Dec 6, 2008 5:20 am Size: 1K To: Palm Developer Forum palm-dev-forum@news.palmos.com Adding to that list requires creating a new transport -- see the docs on that. Doug Reeder Thanks Doug. I have had a brief look at the docs, and I think that you are on the right lines here. I have to register for the _send scheme, right? The docs talk mainly about exchange libraries, but say that apps can register too, with certain restrictions. What I would really like to know is the amount of work involved here. Currently, my app can receive vCards that are beamed at it. When a particular form is active, it registers as the default handler. It then picks up the data, and uses it to fill in a customer record. I would like to extend this feature, so that the user can send a contact, or perhaps a whole category, from the Contacts app. This feature would be nice to have, but it is not critical. I know very little about the Exchange Manager. Indeed this is my only exposure to it. I would say that if I can accomplish it within my existing app, and it only takes me a day or so, then I am up for it. But creating a new exchange library is probably too much work. So could you advise me here? -- For information on using the ACCESS Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.access-company.com/developers/forums/ -- For information on using the ACCESS Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.access-company.com/developers/forums/

This displays a popup form, with a list containing three items: Bluetooth, Messaging and VersaMail. I am guessing that this option sends a vCard to the selected item. Does anyone know how I can add my own application to this list? I have tried registering my application for the data type vcf, and for the MIME type text/x-vCard, but this does not seem to do the trick. -- For information on using the ACCESS Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.access-company.com/developers/forums/ -- For information on using the ACCESS Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.access-company.com/developers/forums/

What bit depths need to be supported under OS 5?
I'm writing an application that runs only on OS 5 devices. Obviously it must have bitmaps for both single and double resolution. What's tougher to tell is what bit depths need to be supported. All of the OS 5 device I know about support 16 bit color. Are there OS 5 devices that are only 8-bit color? 4-bit grayscale? 1-bit black white? If so, are they single or double resolution? -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
