Documentation
References for the local DotTalk++ / x64base runtime, command surfaces, engine work, and teaching workflows. (91 pages)
Getting Started
Understand the active beta runtime and where to begin.
Engine Architecture
Observed source layout, build options, and runtime boundaries.
DotTalk++
Language guide, syntax, REPL, examples, curriculum.
Developer Resources
Current project truth, handbook, onboarding, and standards.
Releases and Manuals
Find versioned builds, checksums, known limitations, and reviewed manuals.
release support
Builds and manuals follow the public release gate.
x64base.com remains the public documentation site. Versioned binaries, checksums, source archives, and release notes belong on GitHub Releases. The separate artifact domain is not promoted until its HTTPS certificate is healthy.
section summary
Pretty entry points for the current documentation shape
These links surface the important sections without pushing every lane onto the homepage.
Feature comparison
Compare x64base with Harbour, xHarbour, Alaska Xbase++, XSharp, dBASE tools, and Python DBF libraries.
x64 capacity math
Teach why records, offsets, memos, indexes, locks, and APIs must all move from x32 to x64 together.
Application UI DSL lane
Track the proposed path for menus, windows, dialogs, controls, and event handlers in DotTalk++.
Historical source lineage
Preserve xBase, XDLL, DotTalk recovery, AI false starts, and modern DotTalk++ with proof labels.
Historical family tree
Read the restored xBase, XDLL, xBase2, DotTalk, recovery, and modern-continuation hierarchy as a real page.
Historical source files
Open byte-preserved C and header files from the original archive as read-only text.
RAM DBF and VDISK
Use process-local x64 DBF tables and CDX indexes in RAM without confusing transient storage with durability.
Identity and RBAC
Understand persisted members, authentication, permissions, owner gates, enforcement, and legacy SECURITY diagnostics.
Current work lanes
Review active, planned, and alpha lanes without flattening them into finished-product claims.
Documentation progress
Follow the completed nine-gate publication checkpoint and the accurately labeled follow-up delta.
Pinocchio benchmarks
Review the million-row navigation baseline, machine identity limits, and the next reproducible run.
Site improvement plan
Track documentation deficiencies, under-development lanes, and academic review needs.
Developer profile
Professional background behind the database, documentation, and education layers.
SelfDoc publication
See how local documentation layers feed generated manuals and the public website.
Website documentation matrix
Map each public section to its source lane, data-mining feed, proof artifact, and status.
Parallel GUI/TUI
Understand the supplied workbench surfaces and the shared engine boundary.
Laboratory Campus
Follow the alpha education and collaboration area for database literacy and runtime proof work.
Cases and storyboard
Find the LabTalk / DotTalk++ storyboard deck, case-study families, and proof-aware case path.
command surfaces
Script, mutate, and inspect
DotTalk++ already has data-programming lanes; the new UI DSL lane captures what is not implemented yet.
DotScript
Scripts, variables, control flow, comments, line continuation, and one-level nesting.
Data mutators
REPLACE, CALC, CALCWRITE, MULTIREP, table buffering, dirty/stale state, commit, and rollback.
Command catalog
The harvested command surface that should be regenerated when runtime commands change.
Command reference
The accepted 183-page snapshot: 164 reader-linked pages and 19 supplemental pages.
