DBF units not deprecated anymore
« on: April 03, 2013, 08:12:24 am »
Hi *,

Just wanted to let you know about
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/User_Changes_Trunk#TDBF_unit_deprecation_removed

(Note: the deprecation warning has been removed in trunk; it is obviously still there in FPC 2.6.2 as that is a stable version that will never change).

Currently I'm adding test cases to dbtestframework and verifying if
other existing tests apply to the dbf units, so the dbase units can be
regression tested. New unit tests are welcome:
$(fpcdir)\packages\fcl-db\tests\testspecifictdbf.pas

I'm also investigating open dbf bugs, as well as the fact that FoxPro
(table level 25) output doesn't seem to give valid FoxPro files.

I'll also be working with the new Sourceforge TDBF maintainer to
synchronize the FPC and Sourceforge versions.

Thanks!
