Hi,
is there a function in a PowerBuilder Mobil App to read the datetime when the app was deployed to the server?
Kind regards,
Ludwin

Hi Ludwin;
No, there is no PowerServer method call provided for that. However, that would be an excellent enhancement suggestion IMHO. 
As a workaround though, here are my suggestions ....
One:
Instance Variable (compiled - not deployed)
Constant Date id_compiled = Today ( ) // Date last Compiled
Constant Time it_compiled = Now ( ) // Time last Compiled
Two:
- Create a Web Service for the same IIS instance
- Read the App's folder in PS's IIS area and look for App files date & timestamp
Three:
- Create an App INI file
- Add a Deployed_Date = "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss" entry
- Read the INI at run time in the mobile App.
HTH
Regards ... Chris
