I am a clipper developer that has work with xbase++

i am working with harbour http://www.harbour-project.org/

Next version of harbour will have same very interesting feature

Multithread, Multiplatform (windows mobile,mac os-
linux,windows),Client server,dbf,rddsql

an Internal ide that manage intellisense,a gui based on qt

qt allow made very powerful gui and will be basic also for a
compatibility library

like happen for xbase++ class that are emulated in harbour so you can
run a xbase++ prg in harbour



I am tryng a comparison with visual foxpro http://harbourlanguage.blogspot.com/

will be useful if somebody with foxpro experiences will help up

visiting harbour's developer list very active at http://groups.google.com/group/harbour-devel

sorry for my bad English and for my absent spanish

Harbour have a very active developer list (100dev)
harbour is a compiler that will generate true exe that will be easy
distribuited
harbour have a language common with visual fox pro

In visual Fox Pro you write similar work with follow code:
ConnStr = [Driver={SQL
Server};Server=(local);Database=(Name);UID=X;PWD=Y;]
Handle = SQLStringConnect( ConnStr )
SQLExec ( Handle, [SELECT * FROM ] +cTable )
? "Alias:", ALIAS()

In Harbour rddsql (odbc,mysql,oracle client) instead use follow syntax
odp := RDDINFO( RDDI_CONNECT,;{ "ODBC",
"DBQ="+"Server=localhost;Driver={MySQL ODBC 5.1
Driver};dsn=;User=root;pas?
"use...", sword=123;database=test; Option=35;" } )
DBUSEAREA( .T.,, "SELECT * FROM test.country","country" )
? "Alias:", ALIAS()

The gui is different but qt is very powerfull vs visual foxpro form
and will be possible create a compatibilty

Just a question: why you write in English here?

We have no English as our native language.

Regards.

Walter.

Massimo, make it clear to me: are you Italian?

I assume that's the reason why you're writing your messages in English.

Best regards.

Spanish is our native language.

You could to write in Spanish if you want to be understandable for everyone.

Massimo:

The official language in this forum is Spanish. But, in your case, I can
make an exemption. If you have any question about Visual Fox, feel free to
post it in English. I'll always be able to answer in this language too,
because I don't speak Italian.

Best regards.
