:-D
:-) SDK puts trap numbers corresponding to your APIs in the executable file
(You can disassemble any file prc file you'll find a hell lot of sequences
of "4E ??" corresponding to various APIs). It's the responsibility of the OS
to execute them. If the OS does not support the requested ISR then it is
bound to fail. Need not to discuss how things will behave if an ISR doesn't
exist but results will definitly be not good :-D. Palm has done the right
job. It clearly warned about what's going to happen in OS 3.0 I don't
consider that a limitation of SDK but a limitation of OS 3.0.
If it is written under the SDK docs that the API or rather ISR doesn't
support a particular job then take it seriously :-D.
