ActiveX controls in VFP

Hi Alessio,
MQTT is a protocol, not a product. That means there are many implementations in various development languages.
I do not see any for VFP.
If I had to implement in VFP, I would probably look up one of the Python packages and convert it to VFP using Chilkat's Socket control, which has the built-in TLS that the protocol seems to require.
Another alternative would be to write and operate it in Python, and then pass the data on to VFP. How you would pass it would depend on how real-time it has to be.
Thanks for mentioning it. I hadn't done the research, but this seems to be the standard protocol as this point in time. Anything I did with it would be in Lianja, probably using the node.js JavaScript version, so even if I do play with it now, what I do wouldn't be of much help to you.
Good luck,
Hank
