Hi all
A few minutes ago I was working on a single form class in a class library. At some point VFP stopped responding and I had to kill the VFP process. After that I still had the VCT but not the VCX. Is there any possibility I might be able to recover the missing VCX? If so, what tool(s) would you recommend?
I am not very hopeful ... :(
Many thanks
Paul Newton
It hasn't just changed the extension on the VCX?
Try the free version of Recuva: https://www.ccleaner.com/recuva
Mmm. I didn't get the original post.

I didn't either.
FYI, you can view the whole thread by clicking the link in the footer of the message for the archived copy, and then the link for "View entire thread."
But Paul's messages do seem slow to post sometimes.

I have the same problem but for some time now : I do not receive original messages and they are not in the spam folder. But all answers are ok. And sometimes the original message appears.
What can be the différence between an original and an answer ?

No it's definitely disappeared. Tried Recuva without success ... :(

Sometimes you can find the files in your OS temp location but the names and extensions will be different. You could use some kind of file searching tool to look for text that is in your VCX.

Thanks for that advice Richard but it is too late now. Fortunately the form class had very few controls but quite a lot of custom code. It was pretty easy to recreate and I was able to recover almost all the custom code by using FileToStr on the old VCT and doing a number of StrExtracts using PROCEDURE and ENDPROC as the delimiters. It worked very well

Hi Paul:
You should start using a Source Control tool to minimize those problems.
Or at least make a textual conversion with FoxBin2Prg so you can rebuild your library.
Look at the temp folder if there is a tmp file that can be the vct renamed (you can see their contents using a hex editor)

Yes. I have not integrated into the PM as of yet. Someday... Maybe at the same time I get Doug Hennig's VFPX PM replacement going.
Mostly I use it as a way to move code snippets around between client specific implementations or diff my source code when modified by other devs. For example, I have a custom VCX for each client implementation and periodically I may add something that needs to go into all of them. It can be faster to update the text files and then convert back to binary then doing a bunch of modi class stuff. Another way I've used it is when I get a new version of the VFPX VFPWorkbook XLSX class, I use the VC2 files to move my custom mods to the new version.

Are you using this, Richard? If so, in a ProjectHook.AfterBuild event or where?
It's pretty new. And you can setup Git integration which leverages the FB2P stuff.

I'll have to look into Doug's VFPX PM replacement tool. I can't recall reviewing it.

Is there a primer for how to do this? I know there's "read the help", but I've been spoiled by Thor's "Check for Updates", does Git provide a similar mechanism?

Hi Bill:
In his GitHub repository Mike wrote an introductory help page (almost all GitHub repos have this, or even a wiki section with more help, like FoxBin2Prg)
