Connecting to a Oracle database over LDAP

$
0
0

Hi Powerbuilder Community,

 

a customer asked us if a PowerBuilder application can authenticate to an Oracle database via an LDAP server.

We do not even have such a configuration and can therefore not try and before we create a time consuming test environment I want to pass the question to the community. Can a PowerBuilder application log into an Oracle database, which uses an LDAP server. Probably about an OS authentication or something else? Does anyone have any experience with it.

 

Greetings

Can PB 12.1 co-exist with PB12.5?

$

We support various applications in different versions of powerbuilder. (For example, I have one application in PB5 on my laptop, but most are in PB12.1) One of my co-workers must now also support applications in PB12.5. However, our field support team is telling us that PB12.1 and PB12.5 can not be installed on the same machine. Is this correct? I've never encountered that restriction when I was migrating an application from PB 7 to PB12.1. During the migration, I had everything from 7 through 12 on my machine. Is there something special about PB12.5?

PowerBuilder 12.5 How to get the Text Size

$

Hello guys,

I searched a lot to find a way to get the size of a text (both width and height) of a text. Found some posts, mostly pointing to the of_getTextSize on PFC, or the GetTextExtentPoint32A (which is used by of_getTextSize).

 

The difficulty I'm having is that the Height is always returning 16, independent of the font size I use. Seems like 16, converted to PBUnits gives me the correct height to a size 8 Arial or so. Can you help me figure it out? I'm on a Windows 7 SP1 32bit machine.

 

Also I'm trying to get a list of fonts from Windows. I tried using the ChooseFont from comdlg32.dll, but the font list is different from the one PB shows. The same is true if I use "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts".

I found what seems to be the correct list at "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Panose", this seems to be the same font list PB uses (for the dropDown on static text and so), but what the heck is this Panose thing? Do you know if this is right way to go?

 

So that you know, I'm creating a dynamic DW where the user can format the font face, size, etc.

 

I've attached a piece of my test case.

 

Thanks a lot

Daniel

Hi, new to Powerbuilder .net using 12.5.2 build 5609.  Creating a WCF Client Proxy to connect to Web Service as I need to pass soap header security.  When I generate the proxy I keep getting the error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".  I have tried generating another WCF Client Proxy using an amazon example and generates without any errors.  Searching the web for days on end hasn't helped me.  Hopeing someone can shed some light as where to look.

installing powerbuilder on a remote server for two developers

$

Recently, our company was purchased by another company.  Soon, we will have to move our PB 12.5 instance to a remote server.  Two developers will need development access to our 12.5 product code.  Each developer will have a unique SSO login to the remote server. They will be accessing the remote PB instance using RDP through the company VPN.  Generally, they do not need access to PB at the same time.  What's the best way to install PB in this situation?  

Thank you,

Doug


Downloading InfoMaker v 12.1; contract for InfoMaker 12.6

$

I was told by the sales team to open this question in this forum. I'm trying to verify this is possible through the specific versions before officially purchasing. I couldn't find an InfoMaker forum for the discussion, so I hope this is relevant enough. We are looking specifically for InfoMaker 12.1 as our end goal to use to develop plugins for an existing software. Unfortunately, it does not work with new versions of InfoMaker, and we NEED 12.1

 

Since instructions for older versions were made available for licensees of 12.5, I need to verify this works with 12.6, since unfortunately, 12.5 is no longer available and 12.6 is.

 

Through our software vendor, we can purchase: Sybase Infomaker 12.6 w/1 year of support.

 

From previous version we were still trying to access 12.1; instructions said we could log into SAP Support portal; and find SyBase Infomaker 12.0/Installation.

 

From there, it said we would be able to additionally download Solution 32; IM121_6950 to upgrade 12.0 to 12.1.

 

I would like to verify this option is still available to us if we were to buy InfoMaker 12.6. We would like to make this purchase knowing we can access version 12.1.

 

Thanks for all of your time.

PowerBuilder - Sysam served license

Hi Folks,

 

We are using served license for our PowerBuilder 12.5 and recently we did a system refresh. We have installed PB in the new PC and point the license to our sysam server. But the PowerBuilder in the new PC showing that we are in grace period. I checked the sysam logs on the server and it looks like installation from old PC is still holding the license. Can someone please advise how can we release this?

 

Thanks,

PB12.6 net - unsupported Powerscript event question

$
0
0

Hi all,

 

I understand that Datawindow Rbuttonup event is one event that categorized as "unsupported".

 

What does that really mean? We converted our PB12.1 classic app to PB12.6 net . The Rbuttonup event is used in many of our application, so we are thinking to replace it ( due to unsupported).

However, the PB12.6 .net  application still can run the code in Rbuttonup event fine without a problem.

So, I guess - what exactly do we need to do with the "unsupported event"?

 

Any feedback will be greatly appreciated

 

Thanks,

Azies

32-bit PowerBuilder 12.0 .exe compatibilty with WINDOWS SERVER 2012.

$

Hello Experts,

 

I support an application which is written in Sybase
PowerBuilder 12.0.

 

Application executable (.exe) file is created from
PowerBuilder 12.0 32-bit version.

 

Users access the application through Citrix links hosted on
either Windows Server 2008(64-bit machines) or Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit
machines).

 

Till date there is no known issue of compatibility between
an executable created by a 32-bit PowerBuilder 12.0 IDE and above mentioned
Windows servers(64-bit).

 

My query is, If we upgrade our servers to Windows server
2012 (again a 64-bit machine), will 32-bit PowerBuilder 12.0 .exe be still
compatible with Windows Server 2012?

Download Powerbuilder 11.0

I have inherited a project that was developed and certified only in powerbuilder 11.2.  I generated a license for this version 11.0 and was told that I should be able to download this version and apply the updates to get us to 11.2.  I cannot find a download or updates for version 11.0 and updates to version 11.2.  I checked the maintenance.sybase.com site but it is down right now.  Does anyone have any idea where I can get this version and updates?


Thanks.

 

John
