Hi, I am currently evaluating the trial version PB CloudPro edition to do a proof-of-concept and migrate one of our existing client-server PB applications to the web.

One thing I have noticed is that the code generated after migration to the web is encrypted. Is this because I am using the trial version? Will the real version of PB CloudPro/PowerServer allow us to access the code generated and modify it?

Thanks.

Hi Narius,

PowerServer is a Web/Cloud deployment solution for PowerBuilder rather than migration to different language.  So you do all your coding (including maintenance) of your Web/cloud project in the PowerBuilder IDE.

If you are looking to migrate to a different language, I would recommend you look at PowerScript Migrator.  It generates standard C# code that can be maintained in any C# IDE.

Also, please note that PowerServer 2021 is going to be enhanced greatly, including switching out from our own AJAX implementation to standard REST interface and supporting .NET Core.  As such, you can secure the communication using whatever REST security you like, such as OAuth 2.0 or JWT.

Best regards,
Armeen

Hi Narius;

   No, that is a stand PS feature. The same for data transfer as PS uses it's own AJAX implementation for data transmission to/from the Web Browser. Of course, you can also implement further security / integrity as well by adding your own certificates and then upgrading to using HTTPS interactions.
