xHarbour to Harbour yes / no ?

[ohaldi]

Hello,

I always use xHarbour to keep an application up to date. However, I see that the world of xHarbour does not move anymore. I wonder if I should switch to Harbour. However, I wonder if the adaptation would be difficult. I also use the build manager xBuildW.exe. I use as libraries, PageScript32 and gtwvw. What do you think, does it make sense to migrate?

Best Regards

Otto

You could use QPM, which is a project manager to organize your .prg, .libs, .h
I use it using Harbor in some projects and I use it daily with Harbor+MiniguiExt+Borland.

Do you need anything on Harbour that does not exists on XHarbour?

Are you with errors about to use XHarbour ?

If you really wants to change to Harbour, you can add #ifdef __XHARBOUR__ while making tests compiling with Harbour, and make your own tests about what will be needed to migration.

HBMK2 is part of Harbour, to help on compile, you need only create a hbp with files of the project (prg, c, libraries, and others)

Harbour libraries are added by default, add only extra libraries names/paths

HBMK2 can be used on XHarbour too, but some PATHS will not be the same as Harbour, may be needed more information on HBP to XHarbour.
