RS256 Encryption through .Net Assembly import |
PowerBuilder demo code and SnapDevelop projects for two different .Net Assemblies that does RS256 ( RSA with SHA256 ) encryption. You can use either a PKCS#8 or PKCS#1 private key. PowerBuilder generates the latter when you use AsymmetricGenerateKey. Either way, you need to provide the non-Base64 prefix ( the part that contains "BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY" for PKCS#8 and "BEGIN PRIVATE KEY" for PKCS#1 ) so that the assembly can determine which key type it's working with.

String Break - Adds line breaks to strings by analyzing content |
When attempting to display the contents of a long string into an area having limited width, but with room for multiple lines, PowerBuilder & Windows will simulate a line break only where it finds white space in the string. Sometimes this behavior is adequate, but when the string lacks spaces the data is usually cropped. [PowerBuilder / DataWindow / NVO] |

PFC Resize without PFC |
Code for my 2020 Elevate Session Using the PFC Resize service without the PFC. I have broken out 2 objects from the PFC that can now be used without any other PFC objects.

Enhanced SizeOf Utility with Sample Application and WinAPI Tutorial Demo & Tests |
PB does not currently have a "SizeOf" function for returning the amount of memory required by a variable of a standard datatype or a structure. The ability to dynamically determine the size of a structure is very helpful when setting the "size" member required in some WIndows API (WinAPI) structures, particularly if it could take into account member boundary alignment padding and other conventions for both the 32-bit and 64-bit environments. [PowerBuilder / WinAPI] |

u_json Object oriented JSON in PB |
JSON handling in PowerBuilder is fine to handle relational data, as long as it comes in the format defined by Appeon. But often, we need to work with data from an external interface, that’s where u_json comes in handy: You can parse, manipulate and/or generate all JSON files with the same object, in a true object oriented way.
