Yes. You are wrong as we offer jpeg/gif library for CodeWarrior developers.
http://www.absoluteword.com/jpglib/ (haven't updated the site though...)
The library runs on any Palm 3.5 or later. Uses Motorola assembler code or
native ARM when applicable. Memory requirements are minor.
As for GIF, below you'll find GIF library h file. You'll be able to show
the whole animation cycle or unpack and show any frame from the file.
Actually you'll get uncompressed bitmap and can do whatever you want with
it.
The library could be shipped either as binaries:
*.lib - library
*.h - headers
*.bin - ARM code resource
*.dll - simulator library
or as source code:
CW project + VC project for DLL
Currently the library supports both baseline and progressive jpegs and
animated gifs (interlaced or not). For the price contact me of list. The
options are:
- baseline jpegs only: binaries or source
- baseline/progressive jpegs only: binaries or source
- gif only: binaries or source
- jpeg/gif: binaries or source
