-To build the xbase library
-
-1) Verify you have the correct software prerequisites installed
- A) cmake 2.6 or LATER
- B) Compiler and linker
-
-2) Verify you have access to the target location of the library
-
-3) Unpack the tar or zip file
-
-4) For Linux 64 bit or 32 bit plat forms
-
- cd xbase/build/Linux64 or xbase/build/Linux32
- cmake .
- make
- make test
- sudo make install
-
- Verify the ld.so.conf file has the library target directory
- For example
- update file /etc/ld.so.conf to include /usr/local/lib
- and run ldconfig
- Your milage may vary depending on Linux Distro
-
-
- To update the configuration file
- cd xbase/build/Linux64 or xbase/build/Linux32
- ccmake .
-
-
-
-5) For Mac
-
- Verify you have xcode installed and operational
- cd xbase/build/Mac
- cmake . -DCMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.11.sdk
- make
- make test
-
-
-6) For Windows 64 bit with Visual Studio
-
- Open a Visual Studio 64 bit Shell
- cd xbase\build\Win64VS
- buildwin.bat
- nmake test
-
- From a VS Studio 64 bit shell in admin mode
- nmake install
-
- Also of note: cleanwin.bat resets everything
-
-7) For Windows 32 bit with Visual Studio
-
- Open a Visual Studio 32 bit Shell
- cd xbase\build\Win32VS
- buildwin.bat
- nmake test
-
- From a VS Studio 32 bit shell in admin mode
- nmake install
-
-
-
-8) For Windows 32 bit with Borland 5.5 free compiler
-
- cd xbase\build\Win32Borland
- BuildBorland.bat
- make test
-
-
-9) For other platforms
-
- Here is something to start with...
-
- cd xbase
- md MyPlatform
- cd MyPlatform
- cp ../Cmake/CmakeLists.txt .
-
- Enter the appropriate make command for your environment - check the cmake web site for help
- On Linux, it is .cmake, then make
- your mileage may vary
-
- Send your results to the library maintainer so it can be added to this library

-How to modify the library:
-
-
-The library was redesigned with a structure in mind to allow additional
-dbf, memo and index files to be added relatively easily without trashing
-the underlying codebase.
-
-
-To add functionality to add a DBF, or tailor a particular dbf class,
-create a new derived class using the xbdbf class as a base class.
-The core xbdbf base class encompasses the DBASE III code base.
-
-At one time there was "Real Delete" processing embedded in the code. It
-was removed from the core classes because it would be incompatible with
-later versions of the xbase file structures. If you were interested in
-adding this back into the library, you could derive a new dbf class
-and add the mods into the new derived class, leaving the base class
-as it stands.
-
-
-To add additional memo functionality, create a new derived class from
-the xbMemo class.
-
-
-
-Update xbFile::DetermineXbaseVersion to identify Xbase file type \ No newline at end of file

-Xbase64 - Multi user / Record Locking
-
-
-
-If you are using the Xbase64 library in a multi user environment,
-
-The Record Locking functionality of Xbase64 is designed to work in an evironment
-where the files are not cached on a local client machine.
-
-If you are using the Xbase64 library in a multi user environment, you will need
-to verify that Oplocks are turned off for the files in question.
-
-Oplocks is short for Opportunistic Locking.
-
-
-If you are using Samba software as your file server software, you will
-need to add the following to your smb.conf config files.
-
-
-In the global section of the smb.conf file:
-
-[global]
-veto oplock files = /*.dbf/*.DBF/*.dbt/*.DBT/*.ndx/*.NDX/*.cdx/*.CDX/*.mdx/*.MDX
-
-
-Or you could set this at the share level
-[share_name]
-veto oplock files = /*.dbf/*.DBF/*.dbt/*.DBT/*.ndx/*.NDX/*.cdx/*.CDX/*.mdx/*.MDX
-
-
-Sometimes locking issues can be related to the network config, more than the programs
-For example, the locking logic might fail if the underlying file structure does not
-support it.
-
-Mac OSX does not support locking functionality on SMB / Samba shares
-Mac OSX does support locking functionality on NFS shares
-Per Apple, this is by design
-
-
-Function: xbase::SetMultiUser( xbTrue || xbFalse )
-
- Use this function to turn multi user mode on or off.
- This function needs to be called before any files are opened or created.
- If this function is called after files are opened or created, the files
- will need to be closed and reopened for this setting to take effect.
-
- This setting turns file buffering on and off. In a single user environment,
- set this switch to off to improve the performance of the application.
