Guys, Boudewijn Lutgerink has started this thread on Foxite and released some nice little titbits about what eTecnologia are about to deliver. Worth a read
www.foxite.com under 3rd party software with a thread heading of " soon to be expected (so cool!)" I quote: "eTecnologia just gave me info I need to share with you guys and galls: In the 2nd half of this year (around November) we may expect the Generalized Database in VFP.Net If you wonder what VFP means it stands for Very (if not extremely) Fine Programmingenvironment. If you wonder... YES they are looking for a newer name for the product. Given a handle or connectionstring representing a connection to a remote database, you can create your own Databaselayer, and then: . You issue a "CREATE table" command in VFP and that table is automatically created in the remote database. . You DROP a Table in the current database and the same table is DROPPED in the remote database. . USE "myTable" and you are using your remote table like if you did a SQLExec(nHandle, "select * from myTable") . If your table has a Primary key you just change your data and issue TableUpdate() and your remote data is updated. No need to setup anything else in your client side code. . You issue an "ADD TABLE" and that table becomes a Table in the remote database, automatically uploading the data as needed. . Offline / Online functionality synchronizing automatically with the remote data. Life's Good for VFP developers, we blow the rest straight out of the water. More to come soon." Also Quote: " Well, to be honest, this is not even close to being the tip of the iceberg. eTecnologia showed me so much more, I have to refrain myself from opening up more then I do now. I safe the true diamonds for the Prague DevCon first. Only after that DevCon, and with the Consent of Igor Vit of course, will I tell more about the product. I can assure you that this is probably the hardest thing to do, keeping my mouth shut for now about a product I am getting more and more enthusiastic about." Things are looking good for VFP!!!
