Hi:
 
I want to dynamically allot a memory of around 380 KB PDB file on the
Palm device. My application needs to load the file at one time. Maybe
the app will need to load more than one such file at a time.
Palm OS has a constraint that the allocation unit cannot be more than
64KB i.e. malloc equivalent of Palm can allocate only upto 64KB of
memory in one call. And total memory that can be dynamically allocated
is around 200KB for a 4MB device. Please correct me if i am wrong.
 
I am not able to load such a big file into memory due to this problem.
Is there any way to do this? 
When my app tries to load the file, it crashes. The device I am using
has 16MB of RAM.
 
Any help would be appreciated.
