Hello Appeon Folks,

I heard that we can build PBDs faster if your library list is made of PBDs and PBLs for which we are going to build PBDs like below

Below is the target file consists of PBLs (Need to include PBL for application object as well) and PBDs

Save Format v3.0(19990112)
appname "Trial";
applib "appl_temp.pbl";
LibList "appl_temp.pbl;a_functions.pbd;pfeapsrv.pbd;pfedwsrv.pbd;pfemain.pbd;pfeutil.pbd;pfewnsrv.pbd;pfcapsrv.pbd;pfcdwsrv.pbd;pfcmain.pbd;pfcutil.pbd;pfcwnsrv.pbd;a.pbl;b.pbl;c.pbd;d.pbd;e.pbd;
type "pb";

 

Now if I want to build the PBDs for a.pbl, b.pbl and c.pbl then below is the ORCA script for building PBDs and exe.

scc connect offline
scc set target "Trial.pbt" "importonly outofdate"
scc refresh target 3pass
build library "appl_temp.pbl" "" pbd // using this pbl as this pbl has application. Though there is no change in this libary. Do I need to add this libary?
build library "a.pbl" "" pbd
build library "b.pbl" "" pbd
build library "c.pbl" "" pbd
build executable "Trial.exe" // There will be other informations but I have skipped that for now in this example.

 

Will this work in a complex OOPs object if that has been referred in other objects in lets say d.pbd and I am not rebuilding d.pbd as there is no changes in any objects under d.pbl?

This all changes I am doing to build faster.

Please advice.

Here is a non-Appeon provided response:

Please recognize and understand this is only a question and answer forum that is provided for users of Appeon software - where the responses are supplied BY users of Appeon software, along with a few Appeon representatives such as Armeen Mazda and Chris Pollach. Although many questions are successfully answered, some are not because this is not a Support Portal. The non-Appeon participants are ALL non-paid volunteers and I think it is reasonable to assume we all have lives and responsibilities outside of this forum, particularly on weekends.

If you require Support services and/or need more than what this Q&A forum is designed to provide, you always have the option of opening a paid support ticket with Appeon or contacting and working with a consultant.

Best wishes and good luck!

I do understand this is a forum to get advice and answer, but not 100%. Generally I get answer so my expectation was too high and if there would be an emergency situation then I would create the support ticket. Thank you for your response. Let's see who can answer my question.



Thank you though.
