Xbase++the business language

Bringing the power of native code and no-limits to the Clipper and Visual FoxPro xBase language dialects. The Xbase++ language is truly the next generation development tool with its innovative features and technologies. In fact, automated and intelligent multithreading, full data-access abstraction including SQL for DBF tables and ISAM access for PostgreSQL tables, websockets/webhandlers and the object oriented programming model are just the tip of the iceberg.

Xbase++ comes with the widest choice of technologies, concepts, and tools to protect your existing Clipper or Visual FoxPro solutions and modernize them right away. There is no need to look further if you are looking for a way to continue with your existing Clipper or Visual FoxPro codebase - you can safely leverage your existing language knowledge. The Xbase++ platform comes with many new technologies while still providing full backward compatibility, but the good news is you don't have to use them if they are not needed - they can be learned step by step as time and budget permit.

All over the world, companies are leveraging what they have to achieve what they need. Modernization of existing Clipper or Visual FoxPro applications with Xbase++ represents a cost-effective, low-risk alternative to reinvestment and rewriting. If time is a factor for success, then modernization with Xbase++ pays off multiple times without any doubt.
