Hi Everyone,

I am using PowerBuilder 2017 R2  build 1756, classic application. I am trying to call a C# DLL in my application where i found an error message (Syntax error) when i call function name with class name. Please suggest what i do.

Function string FileParser.ParseFileName( string destFormatInput,  string destFormatInput2) library "PushmonFileParser.dll" ;

PowerBuilder calls C++ via RPCFUNC using __STDCALL, which doesn't allow class names, only function names.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/cpp/stdcall

You can't call C# using using RPCFUNC.  You would either need to use a conditional code block and use it as a .Net assembly or expose it through a COM Callable Wrapper and call it via COM.

If it is a non-visual DLL wrap it as a REST API and call it using the new HTTP client of PB 2017 R2.
