on Wed, 28 Oct 2009 19:55:02 +0100
Dear Xbase++

"Today, Alaska Software has made available for download a series of Hotfix Rollups, covering more 
than 25 PDRs related to Xbase++.... "

BUT, Hotfix Rollups #23 (XPPSYS.DLL) is in GERMAN language

Because of error in my application I found "fehler"
ex: "Wiederholen Ignorieren  ;Betriebsystem Fehler ..."

Is there any english version ?

Best regards

Not only should there be an English/International version of that DDL in 
Hotfix Rollups #23, but also all the (modified) source code files that 
were used to compile those two DLLs should be included. 

One of the main purposes of moving all the default/system program files 
into that new DLL was to make it easier for us, the Xbase++ developers, 
to modify them and create our own XppSys.dll (and XppSys.lib) file(s).
Offering only a compiled "black-box" version of XppSys.dll defeats that
purpose completely!

Hallo Andreas, Hallo Zupan,

Thank you for pointing us on this. As a matter of fact the
xbpsys.dll contains language specific content, thus the
xbpsys.dll currently available with Hotfix Rollup #23 is
available in german language only.

For the time being we disable the download and prepare
some packages that contain both, the english and the german
version.

Andreas, of course you are right, it does not make sense
to provide a modified xbpsys.dll and not to include the
corresponding source code files. The packages we prepare
will also contain the prg files that reflect the
modifications provided with the xbpsys.dll.
