Package com.syncbuilder.storage Description

Storage in the style of Palm OS databases. This package contains everything that is needed in order to organize data in the same way in which the Palm OS organizes it. Currently, the data can be stored either on the Palm device, or in memory. The data can be accessed either as raw bytes, or through specialized accessor methods for many popular applications.
