Résumé
goes beyond the basics, here it is. This book shows you how to create real-world
applications that will put you at the forefront of development for the most
rapidly growing OS in handheld computing. Pioneering Palm software developers
Mann and Rischpater walk you through the source code for their programming
examples, teaching you both about algorithms that solve problems specific to the
Palm OS and more general purpose application-level programs. In stand-alone
chapters designed for easy reference, they provide:
- A practical modest-precision trigonometric
library
- Routines for floating-point data entry, formatting, and
conversion
- An application to create Palm database (PDB) files on
the desktop
- Map display applications with rich graphics
support
- Simple yet powerful global searching techniques for
Palm devices
- Guidance for building a transport-independent
communications API
- Solutions for quickly accessing records in large
databases
- Debugging techniques for the Palm OS
The CD-ROM contains complete source code for all the
programming samples in
the book.
