Hi,

  We have a Powerbuilder 2019 R3 .NET web service that we use to create PDF reports for web application users. We decided to use the .NET web service in order to to preserve the extensive PB code that we had previously run on desktop applications.  I was trying to enhance this service by adding a HTTPClient call to a .net web api. It compiles fine and runs in the PB IDE, but when I try to deploy I get this error:

C0001: Illegal data type: httpclient

Is there any workaround to this error or is it a limitation of the .NET web service target?

Will PowerBuilder 2022 R2 allow us to continue to deploy this application? I realize we cannot create new .NET web service targets, but am wondering if PB 2022 R2 will allow us to deploy existing ones.

Thanks for any guidance you can give.

Hi Gary;

  No ... Unfortunately, PB 2019 was the last release to support the old .Net 2.0 Web Server deployment for NVUO's via its old SOAP protocol implementation.

" preserve the extensive PB code"

 

Topwiz Software - TopwizWeb (topwizprogramming.com)

or

Topwiz Software - PowerSharp (topwizprogramming.com)

with powersharp you would write the webservice in c# and use it to call your pb code
