Third party products
Thierry, All your stuff sounds good... but to many it sounds like a pig in a poke (ever how that saying goes) in that you are asking for developers to jump on board with no idea of the product is gonna cost $10 or $10,000, with a promise to extend the useful life of VFP like many others have promised and never delivered on. No offense intended, just an observation. There have been a lot of "hope" for other products that just never made it to time prime.
That all said, I am pulling for you and your company and wish you the most sucess.
>Hi all,
>
>As the result of a 10-year development, innovations and faith in VFP, foxLANWeb is intended to be a commercial product.
>Our policy is to give developers the maximum autonomy to adapt their application, our role being to ease this work through tools, email/forum support and continuous extension of VFP code patterns support.
>foxLANWeb source code will be available through a subversion server for rapid updates, integration with VFP through subFox, and collaborative contributions.
>
>As Tore pointed out, you need to know which adaptations YOUR application needs for FoxLANWeb.
>
>Beginning of september we shall post on foxLANWeb.com the "foxLANWebAppAnalyst" for download.
>This .exe tool will scan your project(s) and identify every piece of code that needs be adapted and what kind of adaptation is needed. You will be able to view/print the result, and/or send it to us
>
>Based on foxLANWebAppAnalyst returns we shall be able to :
>- evaluate the pertinence of our current VFP code support, extend it if necessary
>- estimate the number of applications/companies/developpers willing to jump into foxLANWeb
>- build up a commercial policy mixing software license and support
>
>Beginning of october, you will be able to get a complete view (both technical and commercial) on how to adapt your application to the Web with foxLANWeb.
>
>Sorry for delaying our answer to 'pricing' questions;
>as you understand, we need to integrate/balance development effort, support roadmap and number of companies willing to adopt this technology (visibility on actual VFP market ...)
>
>I hope these details may though satisfy your (legitimate) curiosity.
>
>Il anyone is interested, we may post additional "under the hood" details on foxLANWeb technology: interaction with wConnect, user state management, HTML generation, event support, client/server event processing, client technologies involved, etc.
