Ben,
Excellent. Can you give some idea on the amount of overhead associated
with POL? Is it worth it if we know our target is Palm OS v4+?
InetLib is dead, dead, dead. It won't be supported on any Palm OS 5 device, and I doubt it will be on any future OS. There are some nice HTTP classes out there that use NetLib... search for HTTP on PalmGear and you'll see what's available.Also - Perhaps you would know on the Q of INetLib. Can I use the INetLib code (via POL classes or otherwise) on a PALM OS 5. Some of the warnings I am seeing from PALM seems to suggest no? Our small INetLib app we wrote to learn the API's doesn't work on the OS5 simulator..
