Can somebody tell me what's involved in setting up a FoxPro test
environment these days? After doing a SQLite adapter, I am almost
encouraged to look into this one too.

Thomas Bernhard commented on CAY-808:
-------------------------------------
Please include this FoxPro support - it would allow many
applications to use Cayenne.
At every company I worked there were many old Foxpro applications
that nobody was dearing to touch nor to upgrade with newer
technologies. Cayenne + Swing(DataViews) could be a nice alternative.
FoxPro adapter

Key: CAY-808
URL: https://issues.apache.org/cayenne/browse/CAY-808
Project: Cayenne
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Cayenne Core Library
Affects Versions: 1.2 [STABLE]
Reporter: Øyvind Harboe
Assignee: Andrus Adamchik
Priority: Minor
Attachments: foxpro.zip
I've written a FoxPro adapter that is good enough to connect to a
FoxPro database to fish out basic fields.
Currently all committed Cayenne adapters include support for
reverse engineering and schema creation. I think that's overkill
for MS Access and FoxPro. FoxPro and MS Access would only be used
in applications for bug-by-bug compatibility with some existing
application and not as a backend for Cayenne if the developer has
any say in the matter.
Couldn't Cayenne support adapters of two types: full and simple?
Simple being only basic read/write access?
