What I know from http://www.baiyujia.com/vfpadvanced/f_vfpa_about.asp http://www.baiyujia.com/vfpadvanced/f_vfpa_about.asp and from testing the downloads available on that page: - VFPA = VFP9 + 31 bug fixes (as of now, has increased over time) - VFPA*.* replace VFP9*.* - VFPA installation clones the VFP9 directory and creates VFPA.exe there, and Microsoft Shared\VFP\VFPA*.dll, next to VFP9*.dll - VFPA IDE == VFP9 IDE - *.fxp compiled with VFPA may not work with VFP9
What I guess: VFP C++ compiler is a different beast, Baiyujia *may* use it to produce VFPA*.* from VFP9*.*
Again, risk-free install and trial, go ahead sharing your experience.

Either these guys are very, very, very bright or there just COULD have been some industrial espionage going on here I think.
They do seem to have so much in depth information about the inner workings of VFP and the layout/composition of the existing VFP Code Base.
Just a thought but not complaining though if it works!

he actually shows code to "pro_ext.h" with Copyright to Microsoft Corporation. Surely this code wouldn't be legitimately available for duplication or modification. Hence my suspect mind as to how the code was obtained. Either that or I'm becoming a very cynical human being!!

Apologies, as pro_ext.h is obviously globally available if you wish to do any interfacing to VFP... I have used it before but years ago and in a very rudimentary way so access by Microsoft is obviously allowed.

In my last job (as in last not previous <g>) I wrote an interface to a time recording system that sort of was and wasn't VFP - It was written in C, included the C libraries for all the VFP interface calls, and the rest was sort of VFP pseudo-code using function calls in place of VFP commands (a little bit reminiscent of Clipper).

To use the header file and create a compiled library, you need:
- The header file Pro_ext.h. You can print this file to see the function declarations, typedefs, and structs used in the Visual FoxPro API. - The file Winapims.lib.
Both of these files are installed in the API subdirectory when you install Visual FoxPro.
Nothing fishy there.

Either these guys are very, very, very bright or there just COULD have been some industrial espionage going on here I think.
They do seem to have so much in depth information about the inner workings of VFP and the layout/composition of the existing VFP Code Base.
Just a thought but not complaining though if it works!

Paul, I was a little hasty in my response (see previous post which pre-empted yours) and stand corrected.
As stated I did some work interfacing C++ into VFP 7 but is was a lifetime ago ... or seems like that!
Even the thought of it brings shudders to my spine.

To use the header file and create a compiled library, you need:
- The header file Pro_ext.h. You can print this file to see the function declarations, typedefs, and structs used in the Visual FoxPro API. - The file Winapims.lib.
Both of these files are installed in the API subdirectory when you install Visual FoxPro.
Nothing fishy there.

Dave, I saw a notification of a new message just as I had hit send. I have seen some of the messages on foxite and the impression I get is that there are some bug fixes in vfpA and better 64 support. However, it doesn't change the core runtimes, but I could be wrong there.

Andy, Yes it has started a bit of a buzz. However I remember the sadly departed Allen and myself having a similar discussion about a similar product from a company called Ecologica (I think) which seemed to fizzle out about the same time that Craig Boyd announced that his VFP Studio product would be about 4 months away!.
https://www.sweetpotatosoftware.com/blog/index.php/2008/02/20/vfp-studio-cod...
Another false dawn{ :-) } and Craig seems to have unfortunately disappeared off the VFP scene over the last few years after producing some brilliant work.

Wow, Just looked and Craig's VFP Studio in association with Bo Durban was almost 10 years ago!!!

Andy, Yes it has started a bit of a buzz. However I remember the sadly departed Allen and myself having a similar discussion about a similar product from a company called Ecologica (I think) which seemed to fizzle out about the same time that Craig Boyd announced that his VFP Studio product would be about 4 months away!.
https://www.sweetpotatosoftware.com/blog/index.php/2008/02/20/vfp-studio-cod...
Another false dawn{ :-) } and Craig seems to have unfortunately disappeared off the VFP scene over the last few years after producing some brilliant work.

if you look at his post on the Report Footer fix
http://www.baiyujia.com/vfpdocuments/f_vfp9fix.asp
he actually shows code to "pro_ext.h" with Copyright to Microsoft Corporation. Surely this code wouldn't be legitimately available for duplication or modification. Hence my suspect mind as to how the code was obtained. Either that or I'm becoming a very cynical human being!!

Either these guys are very, very, very bright or there just COULD have been some industrial espionage going on here I think.
They do seem to have so much in depth information about the inner workings of VFP and the layout/composition of the existing VFP Code Base.
Just a thought but not complaining though if it works!

You should look at XSharp as it's effectively what VFP Studio could have become.
At nearly £1,200 pounds sterling it isn't exactly cheap for a product that isn't mainstream!
I didn't pay that for CA Visual Objects and that went the way of the software scrap bin.

Basically, the moniker "VFPA" is three things:
a) the regular 32Bit VFP9 enginge, patched with 30+ bugfixes b) same as a), but with a 64bit engine c) a true 64bit compiler, which doesn't need the runtime etc
BTW, the "A" in VFPA is the next HEX sign after 9, or a 10 in Dec. But it also fits with the "Advanced" tag :)
VFPA is already around since several years, and Mr.Chen seems to be very knowledgable with Assembler and debugging C++ machinecode :)
Personally I use the regular 32bit version without any problems at my customers site. It behaves just as a usual VFP9 without some quirks. I was bitten by those report-engine bugs as well as the Grid-Optimize problem, and with VFPA this stuff just works. You just do a "recompile all" on your project, put your EXE and that single VFPAR.DLL to your customer and that's all. One caveat: VFPA hast he language-Resource-DLL included, thus you need different VFPAR.dll for different langauges. (Personally I don't like that approach, since you can't run in a multi-language scenario anymore, where VFP picks the language DLL according to the user settings)
Also I'm not really convinced about the need for the 64bit version. At least not for existing desktop applications. As soon as you have some FLLs or OCXs included, you're basically toasted, since you need those as a 64bit version. Since most of the VFP specific addons are already 15 years old, the chances to get those vendors to compile their old stuff into a 64bit version are somewhat desillusional.
Then: what do you gain from a 64bit version? You don't get over the 2Gb limit for DBFs, it's just that it can address more RAM. Ok, when did you ran out of RAM with a VFP version, where the engine was built to work even on PCs with as little as 64MB RAM? You also have a marketing plus, because you're now a native 64bit app. And it may run a little bit faster because of the unneeded 32Bit layer in Windows. As long as you don't need any of your old addons....
But it does have a valid usecase for Middle-tier applications, like ActiveFoxProPages or AFPX or FIC, where the VFP engine connects directly to 64bit WebServers. BTW: @ChristofWollenhaupt: did you already compiled the AFP engine with VFPA?
The third option, a true compiler, is stil work in progress. It does work, but stil has the same restrictions as option b). Mr.Chen is working to enhance the limitations at various parts like max. Stringlength, max DBF size etc, but there are a lot of complications.

Thanks w00dy, As usual an excellent answer to many questions that lots of VFPers will have

Ok, when did you ran out of RAM with a VFP version, where the engine was built to work even on PCs with as little as 64MB RAM? You also have a marketing plus, because you're now a native 64bit app. And it may run a little bit faster because of the unneeded 32Bit layer in Windows. As long as you don't need any of your old addons....
But it does have a valid usecase for Middle-tier applications, like ActiveFoxProPages or AFPX or FIC, where the VFP engine connects directly to 64bit WebServers. BTW: @ChristofWollenhaupt: did you already compiled the AFP engine with VFPA?
The third option, a true compiler, is stil work in progress. It does work, but stil has the same restrictions as option b). Mr.Chen is working to enhance the limitations at various parts like max. Stringlength, max DBF size etc, but there are a lot of complications.

Basically, the moniker "VFPA" is three things:
a) the regular 32Bit VFP9 enginge, patched with 30+ bugfixes b) same as a), but with a 64bit engine c) a true 64bit compiler, which doesn't need the runtime etc
BTW, the "A" in VFPA is the next HEX sign after 9, or a 10 in Dec. But it also fits with the "Advanced" tag :)
VFPA is already around since several years, and Mr.Chen seems to be very knowledgable with Assembler and debugging C++ machinecode :)
Personally I use the regular 32bit version without any problems at my customers site. It behaves just as a usual VFP9 without some quirks. I was bitten by those report-engine bugs as well as the Grid-Optimize problem, and with VFPA this stuff just works. You just do a "recompile all" on your project, put your EXE and that single VFPAR.DLL to your customer and that's all. One caveat: VFPA hast he language-Resource-DLL included, thus you need different VFPAR.dll for different langauges. (Personally I don't like that approach, since you can't run in a multi-language scenario anymore, where VFP picks the language DLL according to the user settings)
Also I'm not really convinced about the need for the 64bit version. At least not for existing desktop applications. As soon as you have some FLLs or OCXs included, you're basically toasted, since you need those as a 64bit version. Since most of the VFP specific addons are already 15 years old, the chances to get those vendors to compile their old stuff into a 64bit version are somewhat desillusional.
