Service Pack 2 for Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9.0 was released on October 16, 2007. In March 2007, Microsoft announced that there will be no VFP 10, thus making VFP9 (released to manufacturing on December 17, 2004) the last commercial VFP release from Microsoft. As of October 2019, Visual FoxPro holds position 51 on the TIOBE index. In June 2006 it peaked at position 12, making it (at the time) a "B" language. In December 2005, VFP broke into the top 20 for the first time. Visual FoxPro had a rapid rise and fall in popularity as measured by the TIOBE Programming Community Index. In 2003, this led to complaints by Microsoft: it was claimed that the deployment of runtime FoxPro code on non-Windows machines violates the End User License Agreement. In late 2002, it was demonstrated that Visual FoxPro can run on Linux under the Wine Windows compatibility suite. It can be used to write not just traditional " fat client" applications, but also middleware and web applications. Unlike most database management systems, Visual FoxPro is a full-featured, dynamic programming language that does not require the use of an additional general-purpose programming environment. Visual FoxPro, commonly abbreviated as VFP, is tightly integrated with its own relational database engine, which extends FoxPro's xBase capabilities to support SQL query and data manipulation. Other members of the xBase language family include Clipper and Recital (database). Visual FoxPro originated as a member of the class of languages commonly referred to as " xBase" languages, which have syntax based on the dBase programming language. Version 9.0, released in December 2004 and updated in October 2007 with the SP2 patch, was the final version of the product. The current version of Visual FoxPro is COM-based and Microsoft has stated that they do not intend to create a Microsoft. Visual FoxPro 3.0, the first "Visual" version, reduced platform support to only Mac and Windows, and later versions 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 were Windows-only. FoxPro 2.6 worked on Mac OS, DOS, Windows, and Unix.
Fox Technologies merged with Microsoft in 1992, after which the software acquired further features and the prefix "Visual". It was derived from FoxPro (originally known as FoxBASE) which was developed by Fox Software beginning in 1984. Visual FoxPro was a Microsoft data-centric procedural programming language that subsequently became object-oriented.
