National Federation: Rule 4 Art. 1...A ball which is in contact with a player or with the court is in the backcourt if either the ball or the player(or players) is touching the backcourt.
I don't know anything apparently about FIBA because this NF rule clearly is in contradiction to what the gentleman said about 1 foot establishing frontcourt. Where ever FIBA is used is a different game to me.

A1, in his backcourt, throws the ball to A2. With both feet on the floor, 1 in frontcourt and 1 in backcourt, he catches the ball. Is it backcourt when:
1) he lifts the foot in frontcourt and sets it down in backcourt?
2) he dribbles into backcourt?
3) he passes the ball to someone in backcourt?
I suppose what my question consists of is: when the player catches the ball while standing with one foot in front and the other in backcourt, has he established frontcourt possession?
