  • Language reference

    From =?UTF-8?B?TWljaGHFgiBCxYJhc3phaw==?@21:1/5 to All on Mon Jun 12 08:48:33 2023
    Dear All,

    Is there a place I could find a complete language reference. Unfortunately there are numerous changes introduced in xHarbour dialect. Where can I learn the language?

    BR,

    xHarbour was a fork from Harbour, that had adopted Clipper 5.3 syntax. So until you need to include that various 3rd party libs (and Clipper tools, also incorporated), you can probably make do with older Harbour documentation, or just Clipper 5.3 which
    is still online. This will get you "close".

    We had extensive effort to develop xHarbour documentation, which was put behind a paywall, and since xHarbour is now being migrated to public domain, the documentation may eventually as well. However Harbour has been reinvigorated, and its documentation
    is always pretty good.
