When will GapiDraw work with Palm Developer Suite?


When will GapiDraw work with Palm Developer Suite?

Postby Guest » Apr 15, 2005 @ 3:11pm

Just downloaded the evaluation SDK, played with the demos, got all excited....

...then read the readme and realised I can't use it with PDS :(

I really don't want to use CodeWarrior - a) I have to part with money for an out-of-date product b) I've had the misfortune to use CW in the past....

Many thanks,

Mark

Palm Developer Suite uses GCC, with all its limitations. One such limitation is a 64kb code jump limit, which makes it impossible to even compile GapiDraw for that environment.

In my opinion, the Palm Developer Suite MIGHT be useful once they release any 6.1 devices. But we have been waiting for those devices for all too long now.

Is it possible to call Gapi from a PNO/armlet?

I'd spend time investigating this myself, only I've already wasted a week discovering Palm's shortcomings and I'm looking for a quick solution, hence GapiDraw....

I can't believe Palm released a devkit that doesn't let you build proper applications :(

Thanks for your help :)
