Guest guest Posted September 28, 2002 Report Share Posted September 28, 2002 Hello I have a friend who has a Palm Pilot kindof device. He wants to know what programs are on these little tools. Could anyone give me links or such, phone numbers, etc? Thanks, Das Goravani, President 2852 Willamette St, #353 Eugene, OR, 97405, USA-America Voice: or in America fax: 541-343-0344 http://www.DancingMoonInc.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 28, 2002 Report Share Posted September 28, 2002 Yep, the Palm Pilot is an Acorn RISC machine (Reduced Instruction Set Computer). The easiest way, if you want to program this direct and avoid two code bases, is to use a Java IDE, like JBuilder, and get Palm Simulator. Then you can program a system directly into the database. Alternativly, you could use something like TINYDB, and create a TINYDB compatable database that could be fed by GJ3 and uploaded into the palm. There is also a CodeWarrior development system, that programs in C++ as I remember. The only real caveat is that the memory space in the Palm is really small, so computing in it is a problem. Go to www.palm.com, www.borland.com, and www.metrowerks.com (last I am not sure of, but it is MAC compatable, a plus for you).

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2002 Report Share Posted September 28, 2002 Hey Das-- Most everything Palmlike can be obtained from www.palmgear.com. Type in "jyotish" in the search box and you'll get four hits right away. jpd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definately Mac compatible. They're a Mac shop. Kinda pricy, but not out of line with other IDEs. It's what I use. jpd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 28, 2002 Report Share Posted September 28, 2002 The CodeWarrior IDE works with Java, C++, AND Pascal as well as other other languages. Moreover, the IDE functions identically on multiple platforms, and cross-develops. (You can build Mac on PC and vice-versa.) It is also a lot less expensive than either JBuilder or Visual Studio, when considering everything you get. Anyone interested can write to me.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2002 Report Share Posted September 28, 2002 Namaste I use two tools when traveling with my Palm: One is Jyotish to Go (http://www.jyotishtools.com), and the other is Jyotisha (http://jytotishsoft.hypermart.net) Swami Vittalananda Saraswati On 9/28/02 10:24, "Das Goravani" <> wrote: > > > Hello > > I have a friend who has a Palm Pilot kindof device. > > He wants to know what programs are on these little tools. > > Could anyone give me links or such, phone numbers, etc? > > > > Thanks, > > > > > Das Goravani, President > > 2852 Willamette St, #353 > Eugene, OR, 97405, USA-America > Voice: or in America > fax: 541-343-0344 > > > http://www.DancingMoonInc.com > > > > > Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya; Hare Krishna; Om Tat Sat > : gjlist- > > > > Your use of is subject to > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 30, 2002 Report Share Posted September 30, 2002 All, Actually, CodeWarrior supports BOTH(! and MORE!) platforms. And on top of that, you can target to other platforms. In other words, code and build on a Mac, while actually targeting for Windows. The reverse is also true. I am doing it now, even as we speak. And the GCC compiler is quite nice, if a bit cryptic for the uninitiated - I use it as well. Again, GCC is usable on both PC's and Mac's (GCC comes with OS-X now). CodeWarrior for Palm comes with both Mac/PC IDE's. I personally still prefer the CodeWarrior IDE, partly because it has visual tools that the GCC compiler does not. The various basic IDE/environments targeting Palm are rather limited, in general. I have nothing against BASIC, by the way, I still use it for a few kinds of programs - in particular, for prototyping. Best to all, Martin J.
