I'm after a bit of feedback on PalmOS to PPC porting. We've written a PPC version of one of our apps before, but last time we just re-wrote it using .NetCF, which had the drawback of being painfully slow, and didn't have any shared code.
This time I was thinking of using MFC, and trying to push as much code as possible into device independant C++ classes, with other classes dedicated to a DAL (mainly for IrDA, Database Abstraction, and other such things) therefore being able to share a majority of code between Palm and PPC. I guess the nastiest part of this porting project will probably be the UI code, because I figure it will still have to be written twice. I'm after opinions on whether MFC is the way to go, or should I be looking at another 3rd party framework. Are there any frameworks which lend themselves to Palm-PPC cross platform work? (Note that we already have a very large PalmOS codebase in C/C++, so AppForge or other RAD-style cross platform development tools aren't really an option.)
