R.I.P Visual FoxPro
From the blog:
Where is the wake ;-) Finally this thing is about to die, no more having to deal with 40 tables because each FoxPro table has a 2GB limit. And don’t get me started with exclusively locked tables either. I think that I will listen to die, die my darling by Metallica while I finish this post. Here are some of the lyrics
Die, die, die my darling
Dont utter a single word
Die, die, die my darling
Just shut your Foxy eyes (I replaced pretty with Foxy)
So for all you FoxPro lovers, there is a great new site (so there is hope for you ;-)) VFP-Conversion
Think Outside the Fox-Den!
From the comments:
Another headache for me is when people open the table (exclusively) and leave to go home. Yes for a small organiation it is good and I have nothing against FoxPro. I also have nothing against FoxPro being used as an inteface as long as the data is stored in a proper RDBMS. FoxPro and VB will be here for a long time.......
