So how is using a prefix file at odds with what you want to do? Set up a
prefix file that #defines __palmos__, and your source files can look like:
----- MyFile.cpp ---
#if defined (__palmos__)
#include <Pilot.h>
#endif
#if defined (__WIN32__)
#include <Windows.h>
#endif
#if defined (UNIX)
#include <unix.h>
#endif
int main (void)
{
...
return 0;
}
Personally, I don't really consider a file so laden with #ifdefs to be
cross-platform, but I think this example is in the spirit of David
Williams's scenario.
