Personally I am glad it is not available.  It is giving more time to port 
to Visual Studio while confirming the decision.

IMO C++ is too low level for business apps.  GC memory and visual form designers 
are requirements for me which means .NET or VB6.  

FWIW, I am not porting my existing Xbase++ projects but rather am porting 
my efforts on new projects.  Xbase++ is what it is and the existing apps 
do what they do.

Hi Rod,

Have you had a look ay Gary Stephensons Oxide Transpiler. It does a very
good job of converting xBase++ to c#. If you prefer VB.net. The
sharpdevelop people have a free c# to vb.net and vice versa utility. I use
both depending on requirements. Vs2010 beta 1.0 and .net 4.0 was released a
few days ago.

Regards
	Mark

Jimmy,

  unfortunately this slide had two PDRs as outlined below.

  PDR-ID: 8102, Montag must read Mittwoch to match the given date

  PDR-ID: 8103, The date calculation 27.05.2009 didn't respect the
                          the 2 off-days. (Thursday 21.5, Friday 22.5)

  Applying the PDR information to the original slide leads to the following
  code which in turn prints out the proper date:

   correct date due to 2 off-days
  dSL1PatchDay := CToD( "27.05.2009" ) + 2

   apply golden-rule at Alaska Software (never release something on 
Friday)
  IF( DoW( dSL1PatchDay ) == 5 )
     dSL1PatchDay += 2
  ENDIF

   advance beyond next german holiday
  DO WHILE IsGermanHoliday( dSL1PatchDay )
    dSL1PatchDay++
  ENDDO

  ? dSL1PatchDay

  Alternatively you can use the following Xbase++ web-service:

  cSL1PatchDay := LoadFromURL( "www.alaska-software.com\nextpatchday.cxp")
  ? "Xbase++ SL1 patchday is:", cSL1Patchday

Hello Steffen,

Now I understand why it takes years between releases!  Wouldn't the function 
be more efficient to enumerate the working days instead?

Jan,

 maybe you should remove the trailing "\" from the URL -

 The error message simple indicates that the URL has no processor
 installed - no dual-core, no quad-core just No-Core -

Hello Martin,

> Now available for download - have a look at the Alaska website!

May not matter, but I note that the SL1 posted today does not update ADSDBE 
or XBTools along with several other pro subscription runtime libraries.

I will assume they are SL1 is backwards compatible with the prior .331 releases 
of these runtimes.

Hello Carlos,

I had the same problem.  SL1 is delivered as a patch that is dependent upon 
the existing 1.90.331 install.

To succeed you must have the Xbase++ environment variables set per the original 
install and run the SL1 patch from the base folder of that install.

*** Make a backup of your .331 install in case you want to revert ***

Once you follow these instructions, the patch will install fine.

Hello Rodd:
good morning.
Many thanks.
I have 1.90.335 and I think I do not need the patch.

hi,

No, it is "forward" compatible 

i did run SL1 Code with that v355 Version "without visual Style" and all
seems to work ?
i can run WMI Sample which need ComEvalCollection() which is a "Futures"
of SL1 ?

so BIG THX to Alaska for this Version "without visual Style" which does
meen that you can get a "orange" Litebar on a Tab when using
XBPTABPAGE_TAB_BOTTOM
which does NOT work with "full" SL1 ...

I'm looking but, don't see anything that looks newer than the original SL1.

What am I missing?

Don,
nothing!!!
If you already have SL1 (because you are an active subscriber) you do not 
need to do anything (and - in fact - should not do anything)!!!!!
This SL1 is only for those "only" being a registered user but not an active 
subscriber!

Martin

Do you have 1.9 installed???? If so was it installed by the original
installer or by hand copying?
