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.
Access does.

Ah, but since it's still under NDA, how do we know no one on this list has it?

The fact that the SDK is in private beta and nobody on this list was
invited is enough of a spit in the face to just not bother whit this
Pre sh*t

Pricing of Palm-OS (Garnet) Apps

2009-01-09 Thread reeder.29
Given the news from Palm, should I reduce the price on my Palm OS app? Or wait 
until I see a distinct drop in sales?

Re: Ubuntu Linux Palm OS development?

2008-12-31 Thread reeder.29
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.

Eclipse runs on Linux just fine. So it should be possible to get the Access

Dont ask me how, though.

Re: Sending a Contact

2008-12-09 Thread reeder.29
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.

 Adding to that list requires creating a new transport -- see the  docs on 
 that.

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?

When I select a contact in the Contacts application on my Treo 650, the Record 
menu has an option called Send Contact. 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.

Re: Memory Manager Error

Do you know the function allocated the char* on the heap, and that it expects 
your code to free it?

I acquire a Char * from a function and then at the end of my application I free 
the pointer by doing a MemPtrFree(p). I then proceed to point p=NULL; and this 
causes an error MemoryMgr.c, Line:3760, Invalid chunk ptr Any ideas?

Specifically, move stuff from your init code to the function called when your

What bit depths need to be supported under OS 5?

2006-01-16 Thread reeder . 29
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?
