Hi,

 

We are using Power Builder 2019 R3. We want capture customer's pic through webcam. What functions / dlls / Library should I use to achieve this?

 

Kind regards,

Falguni

Powerbuilder doesn't give you this functionality. You might want to use a third party ActiveX or similar. For example here's an old post:

https://anvil-of-time.com/powerbuilder/powerbuilder-capture-images-from-webcam/

I don't think that's free anymore, but there might be others and cheaper, google is your friend, just search on "webcam capture oxc / activex" or similar...

Alternatively you could write something in C# and wrap it as an activex or maybe, if you can get it to work as NON-visual, you can write an assembly that you then can import using the DLL import tool and call it's public functions.
