Dear Enrico, dear Mr. RAo,
What about CLOSE.
Many users use
UNLOCK
COMMIT
CLOSE
in their code.
I think CLOSE is enough.
But we also need built-in functions that can detect the actual data status. And this status is the cache status. Like the EXPLORER
Perhaps it's possible to obtain these for Fivewin.
OT:
It's such a pity that only a few still use DBF here. Especially with mod harbour, DBF files are optimal.
It's like on a single-user system and without the overhead of an SQL server.
Especially for beginners who come from HTML but also need some database functionality - just like the Jet(access) engine users back in the day on the WEB - would be a big target audience for us.
But unfortunately, the view here is MVC and SQL.
One more question:
ChatGPT gave me an answer, suggesting I should use FFI.
Does HARBOUR really have this and are there examples?
To implement a similar function in Harbour, you might want to use Harbour's FFI (Foreign Function Interface) to call the necessary Windows API functions.
Best regards,
Otto
