Yes, 4.0 does install very nice. I got my IDE to work with 3.5 so tried to install 4.0 and it was a breeze. So, my IDE is now working with both SDKs.
I do still have one problem that is not much of an issue. I'm sure it's just something that I need to setup for pass 2. I tried to compile the hello example that was given earlier today. It compiles just fine but apparently in the linking process it can't find the SDK. I had the same problem when my IDE tried to build an application. Pass 1 worked fine but pass 2 failed to find the SDK, with the same error listed below. In the IDE I added the -palmos3.5 to the parameter list of the command, for pass 2. that fixed pass 2 error in the IDE. But I'm not sure where that is done for command line operation. Pass 1 shows the *-gcc using -palmos3.5 but pass 2 does not. I get the error: "sdkfind: warning: 'sdk' not found in /PalmDev Mike > On Thu, Mar 28, 2002 at 04:34:25PM +0100, Aaron Ardiri wrote: > > may also be good to put the sdk headers in /palmdev inside the > > cygwin install (ie: create a cygwin-palmos-sdk-3_5.tar.gz) file > > As we've been seeing in this thread, it's good to have an installer or > package rather than a raw archive with instructions.
