dBaseWinDriver for .net 2.0

An xBase (dBase) driver for windows .NET 2.0.
Currently allows reading and writing to dBase tables and dBase V dbv memo files.
Uses an internal indexing system. No COMIX support.

If you do download, please leave comments.

dBase Versions

At the moment i have only implemented a class for dBase V tables.
Although i think all previous versions use a similar enough system that the class should work for any dbase version ....
except for memo fields

Memo Functionality

The memo functionality is limited to dBase V dbv files. It allows for full read/write of text and implements read of Clipper arrays
Clipper arrays are mapped to java arrays. These may be arrays of arrays.

A simple example

      using xBase;
    
      namespace xBaseTest {
      
        class xBaseTester {
          private VTable part;
    
          public testRecord(String dbfPath) {
            // Create the table reference
            this.part = new VTable("part", dbfPath);

            // open the db file
            this.part.openFile();
            
            // set and build an index
            this.part.setIndexField("ARTNR");
            this.part.buildIndex();

            // Set some test variables for record data
            String article = "test";
            bool locked = true;

            // try to find a record
            DbaseRecordData record = this.part.readRecord(this.part.findRecord(article));
            
            if (record.getRecordIndex() >= 0) {
              // record was found ...

              // read a field
              article = (String)record.getField("article").getValue();
              locked = (bool)record.getField("locked").getValue();

            } else {
              // record was not found ...
              
              // set some field
              record.getField("article").setNewValue(article);
              record.getField("locked").setNewValue(locked);
            }
            
            // set a memo field
            record.getField("memofield").setNewValue("this is some text. \nAnother line.");
            record.getField("datefield").setNewValue(new DateTime());
            
            // Save the updated / new record
            this.part.writeRecord(record);
            
            // Close the db connection
            this.part.closeFile();
          }
        }
      }
