I'm working on implementing my first VFP DLL in a production environment. It's leveraging code I have in use in a form. In general terms, I'm pulling out some functionality for parsing text, searching for words & phrases in various lookup tables and returning a value representing the best matches in the lookup tables. The goal is to be able to call this DLL from a Python process and return integer values to it. Ideally, I'd like to be able to use an array for the return value but I'm not sure if it is possible to return a VFP array from a COM object to a non-VFP requester.
I've made a first pass at this DLL and can instantiate an object from it in the VFP environment. It doesn't do what I want yet but eventually it will. In the meantime, I'm looking for advice, tips, tricks, etc on how others here may have done this kind of thing. Of course, I'm reading all of Rick Strahl's white papers related to VFP & COM but any other resources that folks have found helpful would be welcome.
