Hi! I'm new to this community, so please bear with me. :-)
I've just got myself a shiny new Tungsten T3 for the purpose of
experimentation and development, and the main thing which is interesting me
at the moment is Bluetooth.
I've grabbed the OS5 SDK, prc-tools and a few other things, had a look around
and written some test programs, and I think I have the general compile
process down. I managed to get some simple apps to run under the OS4
emulator and later under the Tungsten T3 Simulator, even though I had to use
VMware to run the Simulator since unfortunately, Palm don't seem to care
about us poor Linux developers anymore, even though Linux is far easier to
develop on than Windows... so I guess this equates to Palm not caring for
developers in general. *grumble*
Anyway, to get to the point, the problem I have at the moment is that I really
have no easy way to test Bluetooth apps. I was hoping that the Tungsten T3
Simulator would at least have some basic support or at least be able to fake
it since the device can do it, but it can't even do that. So any app I have
which requires Bluetooth is just not going to work there.
Am I really doomed to require uploading every app to the Palm for testing? It
seems so laborious, and the potential for repeatedly killing my unit is
looking fairly large. I figure if I write something which isn't stable, and
I can't test it anywhere before the real unit, then I'm going to make all the
mistakes on the real unit, and require a whole lot of hard resetting. :-/
