A public build of 2.20 will follow later.
In October 2024, we are organizing our third European conference, following successful events in 2022 and 2023.
Upon request from attendees, we are moving the event from the relatively small city of Memmingen to München (Munich).
Unfortunately, this also means that the prices are somewhat higher than last year.
We will present the current state of the X# development and show how to migrate your apps to XSharp. Furthermore, we will also discuss the internals of X# and how you can extend X#. Finally, we will discuss our future plans, such as our support for next versions of .Net, and showcase some work in progress.
This summit is structured to encourage open and facilitated face-to-face discussions and idea-sharing among all attendees. Refreshments will be provided throughout day, with scheduled lunch and snack breaks.
The event will take place at the following hotel:
HYPERION Hotel
Truderinger Straße 13
D-81677 München
Germany
Coming Thursday at 16:00 CET we have scheduled an online meeting where we will show progress with the XSharp SQL RDD and where we want to discuss several design decisions for that RDD.
The online link for that meeting is:
We are starting the beta test for the X# SQL RDD next week.
If you are interested in participating in this beta, please email robert@xsharp.eu.
This will be a relatively short beta cycle.
There will be a special forum dedicated to the beta on this website.
What we expect of beta testers:
The first version of the SQL RDD will come with database providers for Oracle, Microsoft SQL and MySql and also for ODBC and OleDb.
Contact us if you need another provider. Setting up a new provider is not too complicated, but we may need some help from you.
Today we have released an installer (for our FOX subscribers) for XSharp Cahors 2.19, which contains some fixes for problems reported with X# 2.18, and some new features.
The most prominent new language feature is the new support for tuples. You can read about the tuple syntax here.
Tuples are a value type that allow you to return more than one value from a function / method.
Unlike Tuple<T1,T2>, this is a value type, not a reference type.

XSharp 2.19.0.2 what's new

There will be NO public build 2.19.
First of all, we want to wish everybody the best for this new year.
Then, we would like to inform you about our progress:
We are busy finalizing build 2.19 of X#. This build will fix some issues that were reported and adds some new features.
There are new features in the compiler, VS integration and runtime.
One of the things that we have added, is support for some FoxPro embedded SQL statements, such as CREATE CURSOR, CREATE TABLE, ALTER TABLE and INSERT.
Other embedded SQL commands will follow in a next build.
We expect to release 2.19 to our beta testers in week 3. Then, when things go as planned, we should be able to release build 2.19 in week 4.
The preliminary what's new document for this release can be found here
During our presentation in Memmingen, we have also announced some other changes.
Let's summarize these here with some expected release dates
| Feature | Scheduled release | Note |
| X# SQL RDD | Beta: Early February Release: End of March |
This will be a separate product. |
| XGUI Classes | Beta: End of February Release: May |
This will be a separate product. |
| X# 3.0 includes VS Project system support for .Net Next |
April-May | For everybody. Designing Windows Forms for .Net 5 and later inside Visual Studio will be difficult, because of changes that Microsoft made to the Windows Forms Designer We will also make some breaking changes to the X# runtime in this build. |
We are also planning another X# summit 2024. We have reserved accommodation in the HYPERION Hotel in München (Munich) on October 17-18. More information about this will follow in a few weeks.
Finally, we will move this website to another hosting provider later this month. We hope that this will not cause too many hickups. The website itself will not change, only the location where it is hosted.
After several years of keeping our prices stable, we are now forced to raise some of our prices starting January 1, 2024 to keep up with inflation.
The price of a new FOX subscription remains EUR 999 but the renewal discount will be reduced from 30% to 25%.
The prices for the various third-party products, such as ReportPro, SEUIXP and Xs2Ado, will remain the same for now.
The price of ADS licenses will be increased with approximately 5%.
Today we have released a public installer for XSharp Cahors 2.18.
