'Fibonacci Delta compression' is used as a crude technique for
compressing 8bit audio samples down to (IIRC) 4 bit.  You use
Fibonacci numbers to store the difference between the current sample
and the next one.

That's interesting. Do you maintain there is actually a difference

There are lots of _database_ frameworks. Take a look at SQLAlchemy.
The Object-Relational-Management-Systems (ORMs) are taking over the
universe. It's seems like everyone and their brother thinks they can
make one. One in a hundred is actually on to something.

As for _desktop_ frameworks, there are a lot of different toolkits
available for the graphics (GTK+, Qt, wxWidgets, Tk), database
interfaces (from ORMs to ODBC) and scripting languages to glue them
all together. Thousands of desktop apps are out there right now. Ed

I'll be interested in the answer to that one, too. For me, I enjoy the
high-level discussion of development issues. I still recall a little
bit about FoxPro to share here and there. And there's always MB to
hassle. Despite belonging to another half-dozen LUG lists, Python

the best [NF] discussions.

Yeah, what is the proper term to use these days for a development tool

Rather than answer with all of our personal agendas, perhaps we should
ask questions, instead.

How old is your nephew? Which grade is he in? What are his other
interests? Is he on the math team and AV team? What's your impression
of his nerd quotient? Kids today are using computers from birth, so
the fact that he's in high school before he indicates an interest in
computers is an interesting data point. What's his math and music
proficiency?

What was it about the application that got him excited? Was it the
screen design? Perhaps he's more of a UI designer than a programmer -
a very valuable and very different profession.

There are a huge number of resources available, most for free. I'd
suggest you can help him focus in on what he wants to learn and find a
good tool to start him with, just as you help clients to narrow their
requirements.

VFP is actually two products. There is the engine and the IDE.

You do realize that you can create *any* VFP app without the VFP  
IDE, right? Any app you can create using the visual tools available  
in the IDE can be written entirely using a plain text editor. It is  
the VFP engine that takes PRG code, or VCX/SCX/etc. binaries and  
compiles them into a runnable app.

The VFP IDE is a set of tools designed to make coding easier, by  
providing features such as visual design tools, syntax-colored  
editors, project managers, etc. None of these are required to create  
VFP apps, but I doubt anyone would want to develop without them.

A framework is a base set of code that manages the common parts of  
any application. In the VFP world there is Codebook, VMP, VFE, etc.  
Each of these provides basic application services as well as a  
general approach to creating your specific forms, menus, etc. They  
can be thought of as a coding guideline for constructing your app,  
with a lot of the tedious grunt work already done for you.

A framework provides you with 'scaffolding', an empty shell of an 
application.  An IDE is just a bunch of helpful development tools 
centralised in one application. After that you're on your own when it 
comes to creating an application.

Hi Nicholas!

Looks like he was convicted some time ago, and executed just in time for the 
evening news. Another was convicted more recently and will get a 2 year 
reprieve, and a commutation to a life sentence if he reforms?

In perspective, though, China executes about 10,000 criminals every year. 
Seems to have minimal deterrant, and no effect on crime. More a panic 
response to evil than anything else.

What they really need to do is increase the likelihood of getting caught. But 
that would overwhelm the system, sad to say.

Common misconception. .NET is the framework of classes, Visual Studio is the 
IDE to develop .NET
based apps. You can build .NET apps without Visual Studio (using an alternative 
IDE), but you need
the .NET framework installed to run a .NET application.

I think you are falling for the castle-and-moat model. The fact is
that electrons go in and out of the building at a phenomenal rate, and
through a lot of holes - telephony, TCP/IP, wireless, etc. Travelling
salesman "dial in" while on the road, CxOs operate their desktop from
their Blackberries, remote users dial in from home computers. There is
no moat.

Because the very next words out of the PHB's mouth after you deploy
the rich client application is "How can the salesman on the road use
this app?" or "How do we let the satellite office in Phoenix enter
data?" or "How can the London office connect?" or "How can I get this
app to work on my Palm Treo?"

Ed's ProLinux is far more friendly than most. I also recommend a local

Fortunately we don't have a PHB, so design a nice desktop app and you 
can use it outside the building with some terminal server software.  We 
also have an offline version that people can put orders on with, then 
import them later.

Ted:  Maybe security was not the correct word.  Security, reliability, "up
time", "plan B" is more what I meant but that is more than one word.  For
example:  Not all of my customers have internet access, but they all have
network access to terminal servers and data file servers.  In fact this is
typical to my applications.  All of my applications do payroll for hundreds
of employees at tens of locations.  I have one app entirely on terminal
services and the others are on the desktop accessing files on the network.
If a network is going to go down, it will go down during the 6 hour window
for processing payroll on Monday morning.  Since the network relies on phone
lines, I have seen all four sites in Hawaii go down on payroll day.  So I
have built contingency plans into my applications that will allow processing
of payroll when the network is down.  When the application that is on
terminal services is down, that's it.  There is nothing people can do until
the network is restored.

I also allow for some temporary local storage in addition to network storage
for the same reason.  Have you ever asked IT for a major corporation to
restore a file from backup?  Doesn't matter if its SQL server or VFP tables,
you will not get it in time to be responsive.

My applications are using web services, sending email notifications and ftp,
connecting to remote databases; but the desktop application is the hub for
all of the activity.

While this may not be considered "best practices", this is what my
applications have evolved into and reliability is a key feature.

Jeff:

I don't think we have any disagreement here. My clients who are
running "web" apps are using an browser to view pages generated by a
web server on their own network from a database server on their own
(intranet) network. If their DSL connection is unavailable, the app
continues unperturbed. The off-site backup doesn't work until the DSL
is restored, but they can continue to function. Remote users can't
access the app when the line is dark, but the in-house
line-of-business app keeps chugging away.

I have had clients that "had to have" internet connectivity, and they
can pay for multiple connections to servers with multiple trunks to
the internet, redundancy, fail-over routers, etc. For most of my
(relatively small) clients, this is overkill and over-bill.

Now, if only we could figure out a way to get them more reliable
electrical power...

I guess that makes VFP both an IDE and a framework, since VFP provide 
everything dot.net and Visual Studio provide, but with better 
integration.  For example, VFP provides the OO classes and runtime 
engine as the Framework, and VFP provides the editor, project 
management, source code protection, installer, etc as the IDE.  VFP also 
provides RAD by putting the language, database, and drag and drop WSISUG 
tools in a tightly integrated nutshell.

VFP has its advantages, but Microsoft tended to focus more and the VFP

1)  VFP maintained a statefull connection between the GUI clients and 
the  database tables to which they connected, which is not good over a 
slow Internet, and the industry was moving away from desktop apps 
towards web based apps like java, php, perl, python, etc.

2)  VFP required the runtime be included with the GUI client, where most 
OS(s) provide a browser by default.

3)  VFP engine used lots of memory, did not automatically manage garbage 
collection, and ran in an statefull event loop, which was great for a 
local network over NetBIOS, but not good over the Internets TCP/IP network.

4)  VFP was NOT a big money magnet for the folks at Microsoft, probably 
because Microsoft neglected its VFP product.

Still, VFP is the most productive Framework/IDE I have ever used, and 
way faster in providing for a solution than web based two/three tier apps.

Hi Ed!

You will be most unlikely to find anyone who thinks that, those who say it 
don't really think it. However, everyone dies, no matter what the doctors do 
or don't do. The best we can do is help people retain their function and feel 
comfortable while they live.

For some time I had the policy that I would not let money keep people from 
seeing me. Eventually all of my patients were poor, some able to pay a 
little, others able to pay nothing. 

The patients able to pay the full price went to doctors who would ONLY see 
patients who pay full price. I closed the clinic in December and took my 
retirement. I still see a few patients on housecalls,

The irony is that the USA spends a larger percentage of GDP on health care
than any
other country (and by a wide margin).  You also have more doctors per
population than
any other countries except for Cuba and Italy, but don't even rank in the
top thirty for number
of hospital beds per population.  Among developed econimies the USA has the
highest percentages of
obesity and diabetes (but not cancer, aids or tuberculosis). In Europe
Universal health care stands for
universal access but provision is starting to become a matter of market
driven economics,
which is for the better I think, in other words let the people most able to
provide care at the
cheapest cost prevail.  The US clearly is not a world leader in health care
and has serious problems.
The only candidate I have seen with a properly costed and worked out
proposal on this issue is the
democrat John Edwards.  Clearly his solution is expensive and more or less
socialist.  Better
to study the belated reforms introduced by Tony Blair in England I think.

Hi Graham!

Is this what people want, the cheapest possible health care? Do you buy the 
cheapest car? Do you use the cheapest computer? Do people want to use the 
cheapest developer? Does anyone want to live in the cheapest house? How about 
using the cheapest toilet paper?

My own prejudice is to blame the insurance companies, and call for real 
regulation of them as opposed to the rubber-stamp regulation we have.

Are you saying the healthcare for its deadbeats aren't

I can assure you that the healthcare for the

Hi Michael!

Around here nearly everyone who works for a living is either poor or very 
poor. For them there is some health care, but it is catch as catch can. I 
know a number of cases where a husband and wife are both working, one or the 
other spends almost their whole income on health and/or health insurance, and 
they still can't get what they need paid for.

Specifying schema when accessing PostgreSQL from VFP

I'm working on migrating an application from VFP tables to PostgreSQL
and I'm running into something curious.  I'm having to specify the
schema in addition to the table name.  Is this normal?

SELECT * FROM MySchemaName.MyTableName

instead of just

SELECT * FROM MyTableName

Perhaps I don't have the security set up properly for my User or Group?

Re: [OT] -- Standard Conservative Responses to Health Care Reform

2007-07-10 Thread Michael Madigan
Health care and health insurance are two separate but
related issues.

We have the finest doctors in the world

We have a greedy insurance industry.

We have a greedy legal industry.

Let's reform the insurance industry, thereby lowering
costs.

Let's put lawyers like John Edwards, who sues doctors
for birth defects, in jail for fraud.  That will lower
costs too.

Let's make some prescriptions available on a very long
term basis.  for instance, I get a bad sinus infection
once a year.  I know what it is.  I should be able to
walk into a pharmacy and get a 10-day supply once a
year, without spending 100 bucks for an office visit.

Hi Michael!

Well, yes and no. We had a guy here in town who diagnosed EVERY person who 
came in to see him with cancer and performed office surgery on all who would 
consent to it, to the tune of some $10,000 a day, for years. Of course, not 
all of them had cancer.

He drew what for him will amount to a life sentence, which he is appealing, 
wouldn't you know. They would never have caught him but he pissed off one of 
his nurses and she turned him in.

There are thousands of guys doing bad medicine. They hire stunningly pretty 
receptionists and pay all their staff better than average wages, if they are 
thinking. Thus they enjoy a home-grown fine reputation as the best there is 
at whatever they do. As long as the payola flows, mum is the word, everyone 
getting a cut.

Re: Specifying schema when accessing PostgreSQL from VFP

I am reading Kevin Trudeau's _Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You to
Know About_ book and he says over and over that it is all about the
money!  Now that drug companies are buying ads on TV then the stations
can't say anything bad about them so they don't lose the revenue.  The
only reason they started to list the side effects is so you would get
used to them and then you will need another drug to fix the side effect.

There was a story out today that people are addicted to food.  That is
because the food 'manufactures' put MSG and other chemicals you do not
need to make you eat more and buy more food and drugs.

[NF] Changing C drive size on raid 5 Dell configuration

2007-07-10 Thread Michael Madigan
I have a dell server 2500 with 5 16 GB drives in a
RAID 5 configuration.  The OS is Windows 2000 server.

It was configured at the factory for 2 logical drives

C - 4 GB
D - CD ROM
E - 64 GB.


With all the windows updates, etc, my C drive, the OS
Drive, is nearly filled and reporting less than 500 MB
free of the original 4 gb that was set up by Dell.

1.  Can I change the size of it?
2.  I can't seem to find the correct utility to do it.

Re: Specifying schema when accessing PostgreSQL from VFP

You can have several schemas under the same database, and you can use 
the same table name and fields under the different schemas.  When this 
occurs you need to give the full path to which table and field you are 
addressing, since the same table name my exist more than once under one 
database, but with different schema's.

Kevin:  I don't know if this is related, but I was working with MSSQL Server
and I ran into something similar.  I was using ODBC with VFP.  When I made a
connection to a database I could not read the tables unless I referenced the
database.

Connect to rbsi

Select * from sometableinrbsi && would not work

Select * from rbsi.sometableinrbsi&& works fine and I have used this
format for all of my select statements.

Re: Specifying schema when accessing PostgreSQL from VFP

2007-07-10 Thread Leland F. Jackson, CPA
Allowing the same table names to be used under one database, but 
different schemas, would allow a PostgreSQL application to be run within 
one database but different schemas.  For example, if the ISP provides 
one database for $10.00 per month, you could host your application for 
an unlimited number of clients within the single database, but each 
client would need their own schema, and the application would need some 
way to provide the full path, including schema, to its tables.  Cool.

LelandJ

reinstall the OS and restore/reinstall your data and apps. And in its

[NF] Dell RAID rebuild error

2007-07-10 Thread Michael Madigan
One of my RAID 5 drives died.  I pulled out the old
one and plugged in the new one.  It immediately
started rebuilding.

Looking at the array manager today, I see that it
finished rebuilding and logical drive E reports fine,
but Logical drive C reports "failed redundancy".

I don't understand how that can be when both logical
drives are on the same RAID array.

Does anyone know?

Hi Mikey! (hey, I'm as polite as Petey!)

First time in 80 years we have snow in BA (Though you should know my
country goes right up to the south pole, so we don't lack snow). I was
about to explain (once more) it has nothing to do with global warming
but hey! I remembered you had a degree in stubbornness (I think you also
majored in applied racism, didn't you?) so it is wasted effort.
Cheers mate. Kiss to the missus (that would be Petey)

At my current gig we are talking about much the same thing.  Deliver data in
a webservice style for auto information and keep the local business owner
data local.

This is AutoZone and the brand I deal with is Alldata.

I read the book. It was the first time I'd seen the inside of a church

Re: Specifying schema when accessing PostgreSQL from VFP

Thanks Jeff.  I'm going to run some tests tomorrow to see if I've messed
something up.  I'd prefer not to have to specify the schema ... but if I
gotta, I gotta.

Perhaps the defining consideration is, what sort of organization is it? 
There are literally millions of organizations in the world that can use 
customized database software that do not and will never have a traveling 
salesperson, a London office, or a need for people to walk around with 
crackberries glued to their fingers. These are the organizations for whom 
web applications provide nowhere near enough benefit to compensate for 
their eternally clunky, slow, and inflexible nature.

This is where desktop apps are needed, it's the arena toward which VFP was 
targeted, and it's a huge market that now no longer has a single major 
player serving it.

I think I recall having to do that with Oracle (8 or 9)i also.

RE: Specifying schema when accessing PostgreSQL from VFP

2007-07-10 Thread Jeff Johnson
Kevin:  From day one I have learned to do the verbose with no shortcuts.
For example, I define all of my variables in VFP as I did in COBOL and RPG
and C even though it is not required.  I doesn't hurt, makes your programs
easier to read and will always work.  If you ever looked at anything Drew
Speedie did you will find this also.  No shortcuts.

I really have a hard time with folks that only use 4 characters for
keywords.  I ran across one today that needed 5.  Bill, where are your
quizzes?
