Palm OS has it's own mem-management, so you should avoid std C mem-functions (e.g.
malloc, calloc, free, ...)
use Palm OS specific functions instead: MemPtrNew(), MemPtrFree().
as workaround you could use something like:
(haven't actually tried it, just sample code)
#define malloc(size) MemPtrNew(size)
#define free(ptr) MemPtrFree(ptr)
MemPtr calloc(Int32 size, UInt8 value)
{
MemPtr ptr;
ptr=MemPtrNew(size);
if (ptr)
MemSet(ptr, size, value);
}
calloc() allocates and initializes the mem so you have to call MemSet() after
allocating.
