hi,
how do i check if my widget library is suitable for embedded use. Do i have
a guideline size for the library or some sort of benchmark?
I have currently compiled the sources on an intel desktop pc and have used
gcc to compile the sources.I have no idea about what the size will be using
a cross compiler.
What do i keep in mind before increasing on the size or cutting down
features?
