Well, just keep in mind that you can't do too much processing in 1k of
code. Even a terribly simple application that contains nothing more
than a 32x32b/w icon will be greater than 100bytes in size, and would
show up as a 1k application. Try inspecting the contents of the device
with something like FileZ, and make sure that you are looking at the
files of type 'appl', and not with a creator of 'a68k'. Bob.

check for Address - 1K
Memo Pad - 1 K
Phone- 1 K
To do list- 1 K

Hi All,
How default applciations are build.
I have seen difference in sizes
a) Address application built in the device as well as simulator - 1K
b) Address application compiled by us in release mode - 90 K
Why this difference is their.
Are we missing some setting which needs to be done.

Ritu, I think you are misunderstanding what you are seeing. If the
application is 90k, then it is 90k. There are some optimization options
in the compiler, but you must realize that it is practically impossible
to take a 90k code and squash it down to 1k, unless it started out being
REALLY, REALLY inefficient, such as has rarely been seen before. This
little 1k file that is created automatically on OS5 devices (and
simulators) is just a helper file. To be honest, I don't really know
what it does -- maybe just a code address list -- but it is certainly
not the whole application. Bob.
