FoxPro Help and Support - Wanted: Genifer for FoxBASE+

Wanted: Genifer for FoxBASE+

O.J. Newman

2005-06-22, 8:25 pm

Hello!

An old client has decided to come out of retirement and restart his
business. Although he retained copies of his in-house developed programs, he
did not keep any of his old commercial software. To modify his old programs
we have need of Bytel's Genifer with templates for FoxBASE+ v2.1.

Does anyone have a copy that they would be interested in selling?

If so, please let me know at ojn@zoominternet.net.

Thanks,
O.J.

Hi O.J.:

You might try this company and see if they have a copy for sale.
http://www.emsps.com/lists/foxutilv.htm

You may also want to check the auction sites at E-bay and Amazon for
copies.

I hope this helps.

Hi Lee:

Thank you for your response.

I have already checked with Eric at EMS PS and the auction sites without
luck.

Since FoxBase+ was discontinued 15+ years ago, you're unlikely to find any
tools for it. And if you do, they'll likely be on media you'll have
difficulty reading on any computer made in the last 10 years. LOL

Remember that Foxbase programs are nothing but PRG files, which are plain
ASCII text. You'll occasionally see a FMT file, which is a PRG in drag.

Good luck! But you may not need Genifer as much as you think. Notepad may
suffice.

Hi Dan:

Thanks for the info!

But Genifer was great in cranking out quick programs. Since the client wants
to continue using his old FoxBASE+ programs, I just thought it would be
quicker to use Genifer (in essence, an application framework in its day) to
create any additional programs. That is unless the client decides to move to
VFP.

O.J.,
I'd call it more an application generator than a framework.
