Creating COM/COM+ component server in PowerBuilder classic 12 and above

January 7, 2016, 10:28 pm

We are in process of migrating our Power Builder classic code from PB11.5 to 
PB12.6 ,

We have a PB Classic application which builds into COM/COM+ DLL's , being
exposed to and called by third party applications.

I see the functionality of creation of COM/COM+ DLL's is removed in PB12+ ,
This is hampering us from migrating from PB11.5 to PB12.6

Can anyone please suggest an alternative to this.

I Made the ENTER key act as TAB key

I defined a user event to correspond with the pbm_dwnprocessenter event on a datawindow

then write

 

Send(Handle(this),256,9,Long(0,0))

RETURN 1

 

it works fine except when there are a field(field 1)  while the next field(field2) is  of type string or of type nvarchar(150) or greater

 

if the user is at field 1 when he  tab  then he goes  to field 2 but

if the user is at field 1 when he  enter then he goes to field 3(the field after field 2) again if field 3 is string or nvarchar(150) the user goes to field 4 ???

Migration of PB project from from 12.5 to 12.6 having PUSHOK Source Control.

Hi,

 

I want to migrate my project from PB 12.5 to PB 12.6. My project uses PushOK Source Control to connect to SVN. In my project, we release code each quarterly. We want to release this month with PB 12.6. We maintain each release codes in SVN. For example, currently we are in 15.4 release and next month we will release 16.1. So we will store both 15.4 release and 16.1 release code in SVN. Now my question.

 

What steps needs to be performed so that we can migrate our 15.4 release code from PB 12.5 to 12.6 in such a way that if we want to see the history of 12.6 object from SVN it shows all previous history information besides of its migration. Some one told me that. Do the following steps.

Open 15.4 Project in PB 12.5 environment.

Check out the target (All objects from SVN)

Now open the target in PB 12.6 environment

Migrate the code.

Setup the PushOK with new branch in SVN

Check in the target (All objects).

 

This way SVN will not loose any history information. Does this step correct.

 

Please help.

Powerbuilder 12.6 eval ??

I have been evaluating PB 12.6  (.net) and have a couple of issues.

 

1) Starting up the IDE the program crashes.  The workaround I use is to create a new solution and than add the target from the original.

 

2) Saving in the DW painter is taking up to 30 seconds.  This would make my project very difficult to complete

 

3) Tabular data window with 200 + columns the DW painter is nor responsive at all. And when click on an item it displays the focus above what I clicked on.  This will also make my project very difficult using powerbuilder..

 

I am running powerbuilder in an oracle VBOX virtual machine. I have 4 CPU's assigned with 16GB of ram. So the machine should not be causing the slow behavior.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks

PowerBuilder .NET and UDP?

Has anyone utilized UDP from within PowerBuilder .NET?

 

Did you...

 

- Use an ActiveX via COM?

- Use a third party's .NET component?

- Use the raw system.net.sockets.UdpClient?

 

Enquiring minds...<finish the 35 year old marketing phrase>

 

Thank you.

PB is very Slow when manipulate large strings

Hi to all,

 

i have a little code that, in a loop (1000 times) create a string concatenating some data.

 

This is very very very  slow compared to write the same data to a file.

 

i'm wonder of this.

 

If you want do a test, this is the code:

 

string ls_dummy,ls_dummy2

string ls_start,ls_start_2

string ls_stop,ls_stop_2

long ll_k

long ll_file

 

ls_dummy= 'test_string_of_a_certain_lenght_non_very_small_bla_bla_bla_bla_etc_etc_etc_ect_sbut_not so hightest_string_of_a_certain_lenght_non_very_small_bla_bla_bla_bla_etc_etc_etc_ect_sbut_not so high'

 

ls_start = string(Cpu ( ) )

ll_file = FileOpen("c:\temp\test.xml",lineMode!, Write!, LockWrite!, Replace!)

for ll_k =1 to 10000

    FILEWRITEEX(ll_file,ls_dummy)

next

fileclose(ll_file)

ls_stop =  string(Cpu ( ))

 

 

ls_start_2 = string(Cpu ( ))

for ll_k =1 to 10000

    ls_dummy2 = ls_dummy2 + ls_dummy

next

ls_stop_2 =  string(Cpu ( ))

 

messagebox('time1:= '+ls_start+' - ' +ls_stop, 'time2_= '+ ls_start_2+ ' - ' +ls_stop_2)

 

//and this is the result on my pc:

Senza nome.png

In yours opinion is normal that "in memory operations" are slower  than "on disk operations"?

 

i'm wrong something?

Powerbuilder 12.6 and Alwayson connection SQLSERVER 2014

I'm using PB 12.6 and SQL Server. I moved my database from SQL Server  2012 to 2014. New for  me in this new SQL Server 2014 database is the Alwayson functionality. This are my connections parameters [Database] DBMS= "SNC SQL Native Client(OLE DB)" ServerName=WSSQLPRD DBParm="DisableBind=1,Database='SDC',Provider='SQLNCLI11',CommitOnDisconnect='No',PBCatalogOwner='SDC',DelimitIdentifier=1,TrustedConnection=1",,MultiSubnetFailover='Yes', WSSQLPRD is the listener name. Connection goes OK, but when I shutdown the primary database, I loose connection. Restarting is no problem, it finds directly the failed over instance. Why is my PowerBuilder application not failing over? Can it be that I'm using SQLNCLI11? Which is really SQLserver 2012 version.... Jan

I have created a Powerbuilder app that has the capability to spawn new threads. Now, these threads will do some background process. I have implemented this one, but the problem is I don't know how to "stop" or "abort" a spawned thread. I tried unregestering the object before `destroy objectname` and `destroy(objectname)` but the process still runs on the background. Am I missing something?
