When I build an application PowerBuilder creates an XML file which contain the run time path the program needs to run. 
How do I utilize this in setting up the execution environment? 

 

Example of an XML File : 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Application>
<RuntimePath>C:\Program Files (x86)\Appeon\Common\PowerBuilder\Runtime 22.2.0.3397</RuntimePath>
</Application>

-or-

just put the runtimes in the same directory of the exe and skip the xml nonsense

Hi Reynard;

  For deployment

  1. Run the PB Packager utility to create an MSI installation file for deploying the PB runtime.
  2. Run the PB Packager MSI on the deployment machine (note where you installed it).
  3. Copy your PB App and external App files to the deployment machine
  4. Copy the <AppName>.XML file from the DEV machine to the deployment machine in the same folder as your App EXE.
  5. Edit the <AppName>.XML file to point to the PB runtime location from Step # 2

You should now be "Good to go" App wise on the deployment machine.  HTH

Regards .. Chris
