Welcome ...

... and thank you for stopping by at knowleXbase.

As the domain name tells, this website publishes knowledge on the xBase programming language. I have collected knowledge on xBase for a period of more than 20 years myself.
 

What's new here

I am introducing The YUKON Project. The YUKON Project is a new third-party software library for Xbase++ programmers. It is the result of my never ending quest to access the operating system from my favourite programming language in a way I want it to be.

Xbase++ programmers can experience a Quantum Leap with this new 3p library, since The YUKON Project grants access to the entire Windows platform SDK using PRG code only. There is no need to revert to C/C++ compilers anymore.

The YUKON Project requires only 5 MB of disk space for installation. This gives an Xbase++ programmer access to

1. more than 25.500 #define constants (without having to declare #define constants in PRG code)
2. more than 1.400 enumerations (without having to declare ENUMERATIONs in PRG code)
3. more than 2.000 structures (without having to declare STRUCTUREs in PRG code)
4. ALL Windows API functions (without having to declare any DLLFUNCTION in PRG code)
5. more than 1.400 IUnknown based COM interfaces (without having to declare COM interfaces in PRG code)
   (COM interfaces that are not accessible with Xbase++'s AutomationObject implementation)

Data of the Windows platform SDK is built into The YUKON Project. In addition, The YUKON Project enables Xbase++ programmers to integrate their applications with external processes using COM (Your business routines become accessible to COM clients, be it VB, C# or .NET applications. DBF data can be exchanged with with external processes).
