  • Xbase++ Language Concepts for Newbies Geek Gatherings Roger Donnay
    Xbase++ Language Concepts for Newbies Geek Gatherings Roger Donnay Introduction Xbase++ has extended the capabilities of the language beyond what is available in FoxPro and Clipper. For FoxPro developers and Clipper developers who are new to Xbase++, there are new variable types and language concepts that can enhance the programmer's ability to create more powerful and more supportable applications. The flexibility of the Xbase++ language is what makes it possible to create libraries of functions that can be used dynamically across multiple applications. The preprocessor, code blocks, ragged arrays and objects combine to give the programmer the ability to create their own language of commands and functions and all the advantages of a 4th generation language. This session will also show how these language concepts can be employed to create 3rd party add-on products to Xbase++ that will integrate seamlessly into Xbase++ applications. The Xbase++ language in incredibly robust and it could take years to understand most of its capabilities, however when migrating Clipper and FoxPro applications, it is not necessary to know all of this. I have aided many Clipper and FoxPro developers with the migration process over the years and I have found that only a basic introduction to the following concepts are necessary to get off to a great start: * The Xbase++ Project. Creation of EXEs and DLLs. * The compiler, linker and project builder . * Console mode for quick migration of Clipper and Fox 2.6 apps. * INIT and EXIT procedures, DBESYS, APPSYS and MAIN. * The DBE (Database engine) * LOCALS, STATICS, PRIVATE and PUBLIC variables. * STATIC functions.

  • Installing Visual Flagship for MS-Windows
    First Steps with Visual FlagShip 8 for MS-Windows 1. Requirements This instruction applies for FlagShip port using Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 (any edition, also the free Community), or the Visual Studio 2015. The minimal requirements are: • Microsoft Windows 32bit or 64bit operating system like Windows-10 • 2 GB RAM (more is recommended for performance) • 300 MB free hard disk space • Installed Microsoft MS-Visual Studio 2017 or 2015 (see step 2). It is re- quired for compiling .c sources and to link with corresponding FlagShip library. This FlagShip version will create 32bit or 64bit objects and native executables (.exe files) applicable for MS-Windows 10 and newer. 2. Install Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 or 2015 If not available yet, download and install Microsoft Visual Studio, see this link for details FlagShip will use only the C/C++ (MS-VC) compiler and linker from Visual Studio 2017 (or 2015) to create 64-bit and/or 32- bit objects and executables from your sources. Optionally, check the availability and the correct version of MS-VC compiler in CMD window (StartRuncmd) by invoking C:\> cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\ 2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.10.25017\bin\HostX64\x64" C:\> CL.exe should display: Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 19.10.25019 for x64 Don’t worry if you can invoke CL.EXE only directly with the path, FlagShip’s Setup will set the proper path for you. Page 1 3. Download FlagShip In your preferred Web-Browser, open http://www.fship.com/windows.html and download the Visual FlagShip setup media using MS-VisualStudio and save it to any folder of your choice.

  • Clipper Programming Language
    Clipper Programming Language From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.(*) Clipper (or CA-Clipper) is a compiler 16 bits of language xBase environment for DOS . It was created in 1984 with the purpose of being a compiler for Ashton-Tate dBase , a database manager very popular in his time. This is a derivation of the Clipper Summer and after being acquired by Computer Associates reached version 5.3b implemented by a graphical interface compatible with the MS-Windows 3.11, and for a subset of supported languages C and assembly , which made possible a prototype of Object Orientation . When Computer Associates stopped support this language, it was intended for application development platforms for MS-DOS and offered libraries for network support. Why make use of a standard language originally developed by Ashton Tate and operating systems from existing CP/M , has a very different syntax of the languages most current. In his day, was considered an elegant and intuitive language, using small verbs and abbreviations, symbols and structuring. Their compilers generate executable which in 2008 would be considered tiny, extremely fast and, for most users, with a little friendly interface. Again, in his time, was one of the most versatile and enabled the creation of fully integrated systems with images, sounds and video, and has already used the concepts of hyperlink (via standard RTF ), context help and instantiating objects (although primitives, via Code Blocks), which, except for the C language, has only been achieved years later by the competition. Another important feature was the inclusion of Rushmore, now owned by Microsoft , indexing tables for your data, making it one of the languages better performances in this area.

  • Advantage Database Server for Visual Foxpro Developers
    Advantage Database Server for Visual FoxPro Developers Doug Hennig Stonefield Software Inc. Email: [email protected] Web site: http://www.stonefield.com Web site: http://www.stonefieldquery.com Blog: http://doughennig.blogspot.com Advantage Database Server for Visual FoxPro Developers Doug Hennig Overview Advantage Database Server is a full-featured, high-performance client/server database engine. Interestingly, it can use Visual FoxPro DBF files as its data store and provides a number of benefits over accessing these files directly. This document introduces Advantage and discusses how to access it from VFP applications. 2 Advantage Database Server for Visual FoxPro Developers Doug Hennig Introduction Visual FoxPro is a wonderful development tool. Its rich object-orientation, powerful language features, integrated report writer, and open and extendible interactive development environment (IDE) make it one of the best tools available for developing desktop applications. However, its built-in data engine is both one of its greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses. Strength because the data engine is tightly integrated into VFP and is one of the fastest on the planet and weakness because the DBF file structure can be subject to corruption, lack of security, and size limitations. Fortunately, VFP developers aren’t restricted to only using VFP tables as their data store; VFP makes a great front-end to client/server databases such as SQL Server, Oracle, and Sybase. This document discusses another product in the client/server database market: Advantage Database Server. It first looks at what Advantage Database Server is and what features it has, then delves into how to access Advantage from VFP applications.
