I'd just abandon learning this hybrid and use that time learning a better

to do it in FOX and how you do it in any client/server environment.
I realize your sentiments. However, there are still many people that
have not done the migration "learning curve" to .NET
It is easy to state a hybrid environment. X# is definitely not a
"hybrid" environment. It is build on exactly the same platform as c#
the Roslyn project.
Hence, it is a migration platform supporting XBase style commands. But
under the hood it is actually c# in XBase syntax.
Here is code to fetch a schedule of games for a team in a table that will
show an image for each team as well as the event's data. In basic
functionality, you get data, tweak it and pass it to be presented.
Yes and line for line without the funny "{};" c# each line can be
converted to pure X#.NET code:
var Schedule = db.schedules.ToList() //Calls data from a view
on the server
foreach local game as schedule in Schedule
game.logolocation = "/icons/" + game.logolocation + ".jpg" // Create
the path for the team logo
next // endfor if you prefer VFP syntax
Schedule.Sort({x, y =>
DateTime.Compare(x.eventDate, y.eventDate)
// Sort the schedule
return View("Index", Schedule) // bring it
on home
})
On top of that. Throw this at the X# compiler, open ILSpy and you will
see that code written in c#. Add the ILSpy X# language plug-in and take
any c# assembly and view it as if was written in X#. Save this from
ILSpy and voila out comes a Visual Studio X# solution.
Definitely not a "hybrid" environment. Except maybe for USE/SKIP/GOTOP
etc. that X# understand but c# will choke on... But via ILSpy even these
can be understood by c#.
Just my 2c.
