I am in the process of upgrading from 2017 R3 to 2022-R3 and determining what PB DLL's I need include in deployment, this will be 32bit.  The PB documentation mentions two DLL's that I cannot find in the runtime directories: pbjvm.dll and pbresource.dll.  I find pbresource in the 64bit directory, but not in the 32bit, should I use it?  Also.  the documentation says to deploy pbdwr.pbd, but I only see pbdwr220.pbd, should I be including this instead?

AFAIK: That DLL is only used by the IDE and not your App runtime.

Hi Steven;

  That is because all Java features were removed from the PB 2022 IDE and it's PBVM runtime - due to ...

Thank you Chris, Can you confirm that I do not need pbresource.dll (which is in the 64bit directory) either, and that I do need pbdwr220.pbd.

I did a web search and it is for Web DataWindow which isn't a thing anymore.

Hi Steven;

Everything you need to know about the PB runtime deployment is listed in the PB Help documentation ...

Chris, Roland pointed me to this location also, its more useful than what i had found. However, I am still concerned that the PBResource.dll is only in the 64bit runtime library, not the 32 bit, If I use the 64bit version in my 32bit deployment, will there be a problem?
