SEBASTOPOL, CA--O'Reilly and Associates, publishers of David Pogue's
bestselling
PalmPilot: The Ultimate
Guide, have followed-up their successful entry into the Palm
Pilot arena by publishing the first Palm Computing platform programmers'
Palm Programming: The
Developer's Guide by Neil Rhodes and Julie McKeehan.
Palm Computing will be using
Palm Programming: The
Developer's Guide as their official developer's guide. The authors
worked closely with Palm Computing, Inc., a 3Com Company, to ensure that
the book is tailored exactly to the needs of an ever-growing group of Palm
developers, and Palm will be using it as a key part of their
training materials for developers. Palm Programming shows intermediate to
experienced C programmers how to build a Palm application from the ground up.
With a clear, concise tutorial approach, this book gives readers everything
necessary to create a wide range of Palm applications and HotSync( conduits,
from simple scripts through full-blown applications. It includes a CD-ROM
(Macintosh and Windows compatible) with the full source code to the examples
in the book, a trial version of Palm's Software Development Kit, and
third-party developer tools, including Metrowerks' CodeWarrior Lite
programming kit. This is the book to get if you're developing for the Palm
Pilot.
