Agreed Thierry, Although I haven't used your product in anger it shows what can be done to extend the lifetime of VFP to encompass new technologies.

Even if Microsoft has stopped evolutions, VFP keeps growing with third-party products that brings great additional value to VFP apps: VFPx, west-wind web connect, VFP steam, FoxInCloud and many others. These products bring more value than Microsoft could probably have brought. BTW, FoxInCloud is a container around a VFP app, interfacing it with the Web. Code adaptations deal with, among others: - mapping VFP to HTML event models (http://foxincloud.com/tutotest/Event.tuto, http://foxincloud.com/tutotest/Keypress.tuto) - replacing synchronous modality by asynchronous call-back (http://foxincloud.com/tutotest/Modal.tuto) - reporting (http://foxincloud.com/tutotest/report.tuto) - paging large datasets (http://foxincloud.com/tutotest/pagedGrid.tuto) Thierry Nivelet FoxInCloud Give your VFP app a new life in the cloud http://foxincloud.com/ > Le 26 juil. 2016 à 09:49, Alan Bourke <[email protected]> a écrit : > > On Tue, 26 Jul 2016, at 07:07 AM, Man-wai Chang wrote: >> VFP is dead.
