Thanks Dave and Ben for the answers and sorry for the rather late
reply. Ben, I also read an article of yours Inside the Palm OS :...
where you have described in details the StartUp routine in PalmOS in
details. A good thing to know for all the aplm adevelopers.
Thanks again.

Palm OS 1.0 and 2.0 had memory heaps that were limited to 64K, so it wasn't

Don't use the Enable C++ Compilation switch in CodeWarrior. CW will
always build a .cpp or .c files as C++. This switch just forces it to also
build .c files as C++,

Dave,
You're wrong on this part. MemPtrNew allocates a non-movable chunk
that
is immune to compaction or defragmentation. MemHandleNew allocates a
movable chunk that will be essentially flagged as non-movable when
you
lock it with MemHandleLock.
Yikes!! :-P Thanks Dave for that piece of

new and delete work fine on PalmOS but it use the dynamic heap
which can be very limited on some devices (mainly TT and TT2)
so you can really use large objects. Also take care to not use
big tables on your code if you try to allocate a UInt16 table[64000]
it while crash your app.

MemPtrNew and MemPtrFree can be used for new/delete.
