In case you have not taken time to check it out, everyone should at least watch the Keynote 1 for Build 2015. In addition, there are over 100 seminars, all being recorded and shown on MSDN Channel 9. This is FREE to everyone to view because the conference ( for developers ) sold out in 45 minutes when first announced.

Why should you watch it ? Say what you want, live in the past, and all of that, but Microsoft is making huge advances in universal systems, where you write a program once and it can be used everywhere. You can use Visual Studio to write code for Windows, Linux, Android, and iOS, or you can bring in programs written in those venues using the new tools, and build them with almost no changes to run on Windows 10 systems.

You can also forget programming for devices. The universal apps will automatically run, with the one code set, on everything: phones, tablets, notebooks, pcs, enterprise systems, and the web.

Why is this important for FW ? The new Visual Studio essentially lets you program with your language and build universal apps.

You can download the RC for Visual Studio 2015 Community today. Remember, this is the FREE, fully featured VS that almost everyone on here qualifies for ( except large enterprises )

You owe it to yourself to check it out. Yes, some of us actually develop with FWH, Harbour and Microsoft Visual Studio ... and it works out very well.

Downloaded, recompiled FWH with it (also Harbour) and working fine :-)

We are publishing a second build of FWH 15.04 for Borland, Microsoft Visual Studio Community Edition (free) and MinGW gcc.

Not tested yet with 64 bits...

Antonio,

Antes de upload la nueva build, por favor en source\clases\datarow.prg hay que traducir los mensajes de alert, msgalert, msginfo y los Tooltips del método DlgButtons().

Muchas gracias.

Saludos / Regards,

Moisés,

Ya está publicada y además creo que Rao te contestó a eso diciendo que no era necesario.

Antonio,

Le expliqué a Rao que las traducciones hacen falta en EDITVARS y efectivamente él vio que es necesario traducirlo, porque en EDITVARS se hace uso de esos mensajes.

Antonio,

I'm unclear. Did you build these 1504 release 2 libraries compiled with the 2015 RC version of Visual Studio, or with the 2013 released version?

Robb,

Using 2015 RC version of Visual Studio Community edition (free)

To install it I was forced to uninstall the 2013 version, because I wanted to check if FWH and Harbour are compatible with it.

Meanwhile I was doing my tests, we decided to publish the new FWH 15.04 build 2, so I thought to publish it using the Visual Studio Community.

regards, saludos

I am having major problems building anything with the build 2 update, whether i try to use it with 2013 or 2015 RC. Lots of duplicates and various issues, all similar to what we dealt with previously when moving to 2013, I have neither the time nor the will to work through them right now. I have no issues at all if I roll back to the original 15.04 (which is exactly what I have done and will stay here), but build 2 is completely useless to me.

Personally, I have no desire to use libraries built with the 2015 RC code. I'll move to 2015 when it is ready, but now is not the time. Would you please build and release this with 2013. If anybody else wants to try 2015, give it to them as a beta, not in the mainstream.

Robb

Robb,

You are right.

What Visual Studio version exactly are you using ?

Please provide me the download url, thanks
