    MySql to VFP cursor

    In addition to Chris, you can also try the Mariadb 3.1 driver, works fine with VFP and i think released in 2023

    Python code execution though Foxpro environment

    With PyInstaller, you can bundle all Python dependencies (including the Python runtime) into a single package, either as a standalone executable or a folder.However, there are indeed many ways to accomplish tasks between Python and Foxpro.

    Python code execution though Foxpro environment

    There is a project on GitHub: VFP-Embedded-Python, which allows you to run native Python code within Visual FoxPro (VFP). I use Python extensively, and to integrate it with my legacy VFP application, I utilize a SQLite table as a bridge between the two runtimes. This approach is incredibly fast...

    Arduino or other board with Microsoft Foxpro

    You can view the data in the Serial Monitor of the Arduino IDE. All output you send to Visual FoxPro while streaming the data should be visible in the built-in Serial Monitor function of the Arduino IDE. If you do not see the data in the Serial Monitor, then FoxPro will not see the data...

    Arduino or other board with Microsoft Foxpro

    To gain a better understanding of how to process the data, it would be helpful if you could share the data format that you're sending from the Arduino to FoxPro.

    Arduino or other board with Microsoft Foxpro

    Yes, it is one of the quickest ways to integrate IoT into VFP.

    Arduino or other board with Microsoft Foxpro

    That depends on what output rate your arduino is and also how fast you want to update.. What is your application?

    Visual FreePro Update

    I’m so sorry to hear about what you’re going through. I hope things get better for you soon.

    Arduino or other board with Microsoft Foxpro

    Foxpro isn't fast enough to render graphs in realtime. For that you should use activex controls. But you can "catch" data in the background and plot it with foxcharts. To catch data in the background make sure you use the oncomm event in mscomm32

    Arduino or other board with Microsoft Foxpro

    You can communicate with the Arduino using the MSComm32 control in Visual FoxPro. Make sure to register it using the regsvr32 command.Then, check the COM port assigned to the Arduino in the Windows Device Manager to identify the correct port to use. sample foxpro: PUBLIC oForm oForm =...

    Update data in a Cursor

    When working with large datasets, using a SELECT SQL statement is generally much faster than relying on SET FILTER. This is because SQL queries allow you to fetch only the necessary data, while SET FILTER still scans the entire dataset, which can be slow. To prevent altering or "blowing up" the...

    VPF convert file

    Some programmers store images and PDFs in Base64 strings. Basically, any binary data can be converted to a Base64 string. The drawback is a larger size. Many websites embed images like this in text fields. This is also possible in SQLite. Perhaps your images are stored in Base64 if they are...

    Visual FreePro development resumes

    How about implementing a api to execute python code directly in vfp so you can mix xbase and python while leaving the vfp part intact. This will create a whole new set off tools and libraries and certainly will get the attention of many developpers.

    Trusting VFPA

    Hi, We extensively tested VFPA32 10.1 across a range of Visual FoxPro (VFP) applications, including some of considerable size featuring over 100 forms, serial communication libraries, external protocols via DLLs, and ODBC connectivity with MySQL and SQLite databases. I can confidently affirm...

    How to import form dbf bigger than 1.8gb

    Hi, VFPA 10.1 supports files over 2 gigabytes: Maximum size of a file: 2048 TB. Maximum # of records per table file: 1 billion Maximum size of a table file (or cursor): 1 billion * RECSIZE(), if RECSIZE()=65500 (maximum), it is 65 TB. Maximum block of an FPT file: 2 billion. Maximum size of...

    General opinions/advices (incl. Pros and Cons) about VFP Advanced

    Hi, I can confirm it works as expected with my projects as well.Also some large applications with over 200 forms etc without any issues. Its is very much worth a try. Regard, Piko
