Hi Kevin, you basically described Lianja with your wishlist. (Lianja is a SpinOff of the Recital core, which was a FoxPro Clone on Big-Iron-boxes). They use the VFP objectmodel, and can use an enhanced VFP-syntax or PHP, Phyton and Javascript /Typescript (whatever you prefer)
I always coined Lianja as "this would be VFP11, if Microsoft would have been intelligent enuf" wOOdy -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: ProFox [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von Kevin J Cully Gesendet: Freitag, 20. Oktober 2017 14:49 An: ProFox Email List Betreff: RE: VFP - What upgrades would VFP10 have had... 1. 64bit VFP IDE for access to virtually unlimited RAM 2. 64bit compiled applications 3. Simultanous compilation to multiple target platforms: Linux, Mac, Windows 4. Add the target platform of Web and allow me to cross use business objects I also use in desktop applications. 5. Make it as easy to develop the Web applications as it is easy to develop desktop applications. 6. Add the target of Raspberry Pi as well for their Linux OS distros 7. While we're at it add iOS and Android phone support as a target 8. Strong typing. I'm tired of my own coding errors. Typed issues should be found at compile time, not during testing. That'd save me a ton of time. 9. Keep the database agnostic nature of VFP 10. Keep the reasonable license fee, with unlimited distributions per compiled application. -Kevin -----Original Message----- From: ProFox [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dave Crozier Sent: Friday, October 20, 2017 5:14 AM To: ProFox Email List Subject: VFP - What upgrades would VFP10 have had... Alan's comment post regarding VFP not having any upgrades put me in the realm of thinking that IF VFP development had continued what updates and additions we could have seen. Floor open to anyone with useful additions. For myself I'll start off with: Native 64bit support Dave [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
