Hi kind souls,

Please could you give me a step by step procedure how to build deploy or incremental build my workspace or individual targets using command line. I have seen some command scripts not entirely working correctly. Is there a way i can test the deployment if an .exe is created? what are the advantages of deploying through command line? Please assist me.

I am going through this link currently https://docs.appeon.com/pb2021/pbug/ug58941.html#d0e58258 but if someone has deployed it in real life could you please show me the steps ? or share the command list with me.

Concern 2 - Also we are looking at migrating our windows desktop application to .NET . What are the key questions i need to ask my manager ? how easy will it be to migrate a power builder application to dot net application?

 How can we convert the data windows to .NET ? if anyone has already migrated what are the key factors to keep in mind while migrating the application?

Is there a whatsapp group or text messaging group I can follow through if any PB Experts can help me guide through the process please email me at sosunshin22@gmail.com

Thank you

There is no magic "migrating" PowerBuilder application to .NET.  It will basically be a complete rewrite.

If you are on PowerBuilder 2021 or newer version, I recommend using PBAutoBuild command line utility to automate your build process.  Here is a step-by-step tutorial: https://docs.appeon.com/pb2022r2/pbug/Working_with_an_Application_project.html
