Hi Daniel,

Chris Pyrgas indicated about 2 weeks ago that they have optimised the Runtime to enable more rapid implementation and quick fix rollouts. I am definately looking forward to what will be delivered in the next build. I am sure we will see lots of new support features coming available in the next few weeks/months.

>I definitely hope we may be in a position to compile our VFP code bases as Xsharp. These VFP "code bases" are of course quite heavy, in multiples of 100-ks lines with little to no chance to break them in blocks. And there are, for sure, still a couple of them at work all around the globe...

>My anticipation is that full rewriting of these sizable VFP apps is certainly not possibly for most without massive productivity improvement factors at play. And in most cases, dotnet-based rewriting, whatever the tools at hand ,is offering at best a limited reduction of productivity. Nothing like an improvement here.

>Source-code recompilation would be a marvel... I understand that this VFP compatibility may be a daunting challenge and look forward to see how the whole thing is developing.

>The support of the couple of great VFP-ers, such as Matt Slay and few others recently, who have jumped on-board is definitely promising. Time will tell. But I'm sure a lot of us appreciate the effort that you and the whole Xsharp team is delivering in terms of VFP support. I definitely hope for the very best for the great work and community support efforts :-)
