Hi, 

Running the AutoCompiler it returns

"Error: Failed to find the library search path in the .pbt file [...path-to-pbt-file] (The liblist statement does not include any .pbl file)."

I've tried to use both the .pbw file and the .pbt, but the result is identical.

Checking in Powerbuilder IDE, the target file does have a complete Library List.

pbc170.exe /d mytarget.pbw

I've also tried to add the PBC runtime parameters from the Powerbuilder IDE, but it returns the same error message.

Building from PowerBuilder IDE is working as expected.

Please advice.

I really have no idea why they even bothered to create this app. The already existing ORCAScript tool already has the ability to generate executables without all the limitations.

For example, the new program only supports .pbr files on the exe. It doesn't support .pbr files on a library.

because it can be installed on another computer and doesn't require a license. I had the same problem with "Error: Failed to find the library search path in the .pbt file ..." and turned out that my PBL folder was read-only, I've removed read-only flag and the problem is gone

Hi Olaf;

  FYI:  There are some key new features and fixes coming to the PBC (PB Compiler) in the new PB 2017 R2 release due out on December 31, 2017. I would personally recommend continuing to use the IDE for the time being for deployment until the new PBC is released.

Regards ... Chris

Why does it even exist? Under the covers it is doing the same thing that ORCAScript does.

I found that targets/workspaces set with read-only attribute caused this issue. Un-setting the attribute allowed the build/compile as expected.

Hello



It seems that the problem comes when the target is on read-only.
