Beg to differ.

Glue APIs have been a part of the Palm OS offering since at least OS
3.5. They are neither unsupported nor undocumented. You'll find them
documented right along with the other APIs. Yes, they require you to
include a static library in your link, but there's nothing difficult
or unsupported about that.

They aren't your standard trap based API, but they are still APIs.
They are routines that you call that wrap earlier APIs in a way that
makes them more useful, updated with new or extended features and
usually backward compatible.

xxxGluexxx API's are not officiall API's - they are published as a library which
you must link against, someone else effectively has written a wrapper for
what you are needing

MemGluePtrNew is effectively MemChunkNew with the AllowLarge flag.

i never use Glue, because either i am using a compiler that does not
support it, or if there is a version out there.. its too old for my needs. i
have my own "glue" code :)
