Yet Another WinDEV/HyperFile Bug : Network disconnections
I promised to write a long post about what I feel about WinDEV in details, but I don’t manage enough time to write something clean and clear, summing up why you shouldn’t and why you might want to use it.
By the time I prepare it, let’s take a look at this : when using HyperFile in classic mode, if the box hosting your WinDEV program get disconnected from the network for one reason or another, you must expect the HyperFile mechanism to yell at you because it can’t find your remote databse any more. And that even if the disconnection is so short MS Exchange doesn’t notice it and/or you don’t loose the network drives attachment.
Really. Cutting-edge technology.
