good enough to write high-quality applications for Palm. Those are the limitation of Palm OS platform. Accept them, move on and start cranking your code in C. C++ by itself won't save you.
I don't agree. You can still use "C++ as a better C" [1].
The real question is whether you use object-oriented or procedural programming. Personally, I use a mixture of both. I have my own set of utility classes for "fundamental" data types such as Vectors, Hashmaps and Strings and I also use classes for most non-visual logic (i.e. data management) in my applications. Constructors and destructors provide natural places for memory (de)allocation. For UI handling I stick to a procedural programming, as all examples and documentation assume this style of programming. (As I'm using PRC Tools I can't use POL.)
That all said, a PalmSource-sponsored class framework would be most welcome. Maybe for Cobalt?
