  1. I'm have a oleobject that has an overloaded function. For the life of me I've not been able to get the overloaded function to work. Can anyone confirm overloaded ole object functions are supported by PowerBuilder 2017R2.

  2. My deployed application can see registered com objects but the PowerBuilder IDE can't see them. Where do I need to put the dll for the PowerBuilder IDE to see it.

  3. I have a tree view in a datawindow and I'm able to resize the bands for the lower levels but don't seem to be able to resize the band for the top level.

Answers to these questions would help me tremendously. It's been 15 years since I last used PowerBuilder. A lot is the same but a lot is different. :-)

Regards,

Kevan

I only see 3 questions.

It's also better if you have multiple questions to post them separately.  That way somebody that only knows the answers to one or two of them won't be discouraged from responding.

My thoughts  below:

1. I'm have a oleobject that has an overloaded function. For the life of me I've not been able to get the overloaded function to work. Can anyone confirm overloaded ole object functions are supported by PowerBuilder 2017R2.

Answer: I have a lot of experience creating COM / OCX / ACTIVEX objects for use with PowerBuilder and I am pretty sure function overloading does not work with those. Not a PowerBuilder issue, but a COM issue. You need to have a different name for each function.

 

2. My deployed application can see registered com objects but the PowerBuilder IDE can't see them. Where do I need to put the dll for the PowerBuilder IDE to see it.

Answer: If you have registered the dlls using regsvr32 or regasm then they can be seen from the IDE. I register them for development, and then use side-by-side to deploy them without the need for registering.

3. I have a tree view in a datawindow and I'm able to resize the bands for the lower levels but don't seem to be able to resize the band for the top level.

Sorry don't know much about this one
