Re: Palm OS Development is a mess

[Clive Walden]

Sorry that I have jumped into the middle of this thread. So please forgive me if I am repeating what someone else reported.   I was new to Palm development and opted for Pocket Studio. It was really good. The language is Pascal and the IDE reminiscent of Delphi. Perfectly stable.   Naturally it creates true compiled code and comes with a lot of libraries that wrap many of the Palm APIs into easier function calls.   From a standing start, I was able to develop an application that stored just under 700,000 contacts in a read only, fast, searchable database in just 16MB.   Not sure whether I will be able to do the same using the Windows mobile OS.   Clive.
