VFP9 Compatible Version Coming

For those playing with the VFP9 Public
Beta
, it sure would be nice to have a copy of xCase and xCase2VPM that were compatible with the new features, wouldn't it?  Well, Frank Camp has been hard at work (well, play, but serious play <s>) making this possible.  All I have to do it put the pieces together now.  It'll be a few days.

Version 1.90.118

Fixes:

  • Quick RI had an obscure bug, which those who reported it to me over the last year, but which I couldn't replicate here, will be overjoyed to learn has been squashed.
  • Field-based Upper Candidate indexes were not being created as Upper. This is the nth time this has been fixed: may it be the last.
  • AcolScan() has been replaced through xCase2VPM, in line with it being deprecated in the PSP Libraries.
  • Custom Compound Fields were not always enrolled correctly.

Enhancements:

  • ParentPKValue Views with multiple parent relations are now easier to find: the FK index expression is now specified in the Comments field of the Entity, on the Properties page of the Entity in the Data Manager.
