Boris Borzic | Announcing release of Xb2.NET v3.5 on Tue, 19 Apr 2016 06:03:15 +0200 Dear friends & fellow Xbase++ programmers: I am happy to announce the release of Xb2.NET v3.5. The highlight for this release is a new "dynamically compiled PRG script" framework that will dramatically speed up your web development and testing cycle (just save PRG and refresh web browser). This is similar to the CXP infrastructure promised by Alaska Software many years ago but which is still not finished. The key differences are: * Xb2.NET uses standard PRG code that you are already familiar with. * No need for IIS or Apache - Xb2.NET makes your Xbase app a web server. * It works with all versions of Xbase++ 1.82 and up. * Using standard PRG's makes it easy to move your code from script to exe, and vice-versa. * Xb2.NET is a robust mature solution that you can depend on. More info here: http://xb2.net/xb2net/PRGScript.htm This release adds a crowning touch to other enhancements introduced in Xb2.NET within the past year, including: * WebSocket support for both client and server-sides (with full SSL/TLS support). * Support for the absolute latest SSL/TLS security including Perfect Forward Secrecy and TLS v1.2. * Numerous speed and memory optimizations. * A dead simple server-side framework that makes mobile device support easy. I invite you to download and try the latest version. I am sure that you will be as excited as I am about the possibilities that Xb2.NET provides to you right now as an Xbase++ developer. I can say with 100% confidence that Xb2.NET is a robust, rock-solid solution that you can safely depend on. I can make this bold statement because we depend on Xb2.NET (and SQLExpress) within our own warehouse automation software, DivertCode (http://dc.xb2.net/videos.htm). At many of our clients, DivertCode is a mission-critical application that must run 24x7. If it stops, it means that nothing ships! Please note that if you are a registered Xb2.NET user but your support period has expired, you will need to purchase an upgrade in order to use this latest version. All upgrades include 12 months free support.

I am in South Africa and our Rand currency isn't worth much in the outside world. Kind regards Nestor G.

Unfortunately, v3.1 is 10 years old - much older than Xbase 2.0. The only way is to upgrade to the latest version. Just sent you a follow-up email re. this at n*****@softwareclinic.co.za Best regards, Boris Borzic http://xb2.net http://sqlexpress.net industrial strength Xbase++ development tools |
