Hi

Just testing GIT for source control. We have pushed our PB app to Git and the cloane t to another PC. PB IDE says there are no PBLs with is correct and then regenerates them. It deletes the PBG files from the local folder. A push back from the cloned environment will delete the PBGs from Git and so on....

This does not seem like normal behavour, have we done something wrong?

Cheers

David

Hi David,

 

The Pbg file was a form of source code management file used in the old VSS or PB Native. Starting from PB2022, our source code management (SVN & Git) employs a new method where PBLs do not need to be uploaded. Instead, when fetching source code from the server, PBLs are automatically generated, and during this process, a new Pbg file is generated using additional logic, which is then deleted after use. This explains the situation you mentioned.

 

With SVN and Git, there is no need for Pbg files, and there should be no impact on your application.

 

Regards,

Kitty
