Palm OS(R) SDK version 3.5 now available

The completed Palm OS SDK version 3.5 is now available on the Palm
web site at http://www.palm.com/devzone/tools/sdk35.html  This SDK can
be used in conjunction with CodeWarrior for Palm Computing(R) Platform r6
on Windows and MacOS-based computers, and with the gcc-based PRC-Tools
toolset, to create applications for all Palm OS platform handheld
computers.

The major enhancement in this release is the support for color devices
in Palm OS version 3.5. For more information about Palm OS version
3.5, you may view a software overview of the release at
http://www.palm.com/devzone/docs/palmos35.html

This version of the SDK also contains a unified library and header
organization such that all Palm OS development (including Palm VII(TM)
development and Japanese development) can now be done with one set of
headers and libraries. The SDK also includes improved versions of some
CodeWarrior components, to fix a variety of bugs.

Before using the SDK, we strongly recommend that you read the Read Me
file contained inside the main installer.

Release Note 3/9/2000: All items in the SDK are based upon the release
of Palm OS software version 3.5 and are considered released versions.
The versions of Constructor for Palm OS software on Mac OS and Windows
are labeled as beta and will be continually updated, as will the
documentation. Please review the notes in the Read Me for the latest
information on changes in Constructor. There is a known bug in
Constructor that under certain screen depths on Windows 95 and 98, red
and blue shades can be incorrectly swapped. Palm is working on a fix
which should be available soon, but you can work around the bug by
using a different screen depth or by using Windows NT.
