It's a Clipper compiler, with additional OO extensions. Much like

comparing VFP to Fox.

I use it on one of my products (which I'm re-writing in C#...), which

originally started life as a DOS Clipper app.

Be wary of Alaska. They promise the moon but deliver very little.

I've been hearing about how wonderful their upcoming version is for

about 5 years.

They seem to be targeting VFP people now, which surprises me as

Xbase++ is nowhere near as complete as VFP (no report engine, no

inline sql or views, poor designer/development tools, poor sql

passthrough, limited visual controls, ...).
