Thank's

Fafi,

FWH 64 is ready since several years ago

Rock solid, fully compatible with FWH 32 bits

You may order it from http://www.fivetechsoft.com (alternatively you may pay using PayPal to alinares@fivetechsoft.com)

You can't not order it as an upgrade from FWH 32 bits, as internally they are built differently,
thats why we sell them as different products (32 and 64 bits) though they are 100% compatible

If you are interested in getting both FWH 32 and 64 bits, then our product "FTDN renewal" is your best choice,
as you get both products (and more), with free upgrades for six months, and unlimited free tech support, and
you get the best disccount from us

Thank you Antonio for the information

How about the 64 compiler ?

I am using :

xHB compiler ( Pelles C ) included SQLRDD libs for MySQL, Postgres , SQLServer and more..

Is there connection like this on FWH64 bits ?

Connection to server :

Code: Select all

           cRDD := "SQLRDD"
           cIP := "localhost" // Server 
                 cConnString := "MySQL="+cIP+";UID=root;PWD=;DTB=blu;PRT=3306" 
                 
                 nOpt := 3
                 nConBLU := SR_AddConnection( If( nOpt = 1, CONNECT_ODBC, if( nOpt = 2, CONNECT_POSTGRES, if( nOpt = 3, CONNECT_MYSQL, if( nOpt = 4, CONNECT_ORACLE, CONNECT_FIREBIRD ) ) ) ), cConnString )
                 If nConBLU < 0
                    ? "Server BLU no connect to  IP Address "+cIP
                    return .f.
                 EndIf
                 
                 
                 SR_SetActiveConnection(nConBLU) 


 

Connect to tabel :

Code: Select all

   cFile  := "blu_kel_jurnal"
   if !SR_ExistTable(cFile) 
      ?cFile+" Not found"
      return nil
   endif
   USE (cFile) new shared VIA cRDD alias keljurnal
   if !SR_ExistIndex( cFile )
       index on jurnal   tag jurnal    to (cFile)
   endif
   set index to (cFile)
   keljurnal->(ordSetFocus("jurnal"))
 

So, I don't want to lose my old Prgs ..


Thanks in advance

I obtained the 64 bit version but don't really use it. There are two reasons:

1) Someone pointed out to me that most of our applications simply do not need 64 bit resources. Considering that companies like Microsoft actually suggest you use the 32 bit version of products like Office, that makes sense. If you need a 64 bit version, though, this product does work.

2) My biggest problem was the cost of some 3rd party libraries. For example, I include a spell checker, and the company only provided a 32 bit version when I purchased the license. Although they have added very little to the product, when they released a 64 bit version, the price was ridiculous. They refused to consider any lower cost options. Some of my libs / dlls have 64 bit versions, but the costs to upgrade others can be pretty steep.

So far, my clients are very happy with 32 bit performance, but I know I have the option to provide 64 bit should I need it.

Fafi,

You may use Harbour 64 bits. Thats the one we use for FWH 64 bits.

There is a xHarbour 64 bits but we have not tested it yet, as it became available quite recently

Thank you Mr. Tim,

I like your advice,

Mr. Antonio,
I sent to your email about my request..
I hope, I will get the best price

I would like to add that I use Harbour with MSVC 2015. I have been very pleased with the results. I also build my primary application with xHB ( .com ) but I do that for backward compatibility, and primarily for my clients who purchased Advantage Database Server 7 or 8.

The Harbour / MSVC allows us to have some extra features that are not available in xHB. Since MSVC 2015 Community is Free ( as will be the 2017 Visual Studio Community ), there is every reason to use it.
