>wwJsonSerializer
>wwHTTP call
>wwSMTP
>wwFTP
>Data access (wwBusiness Data access for DBF or Sql Server)
>wwUtils (tons of useful functions)
>wwConfig class (configuration persistence class - supports XML or INI formats)
>wwDotNetBridge (allows using .Net classes from FoxPro apps)
>wwEncryption (encrypts/decrypts data/text)
>wwAPI (provides a number of useful utility functions that access the Windows API or other external DLL interfaces. This class also houses the wwImaging wrapper functions that talk to the wwImaging.dll.)
Thank you!
