Resolved registered OCX works in delevopment but fails in 64bit build

We have signature capture working in previous 32bit versions of Powerbuilder and when I debug the signature capture window in PB2019 it still works.

.

But when I build the 64bit app to be deployed, the call to the OCX fails. What do I need to fix to make get our migration to 2019 working.

 

PB2019 R2 Build 2353, OCX is registered properly on the 64bit computer.

 

Thanks

Doug Gray

Attached R0035 Application Error. This only happens when I run the EXE build, not when testing in development.

Hi Doug .. thanks for the update. Sounds like the prudent thing to do in your case is continue with the 32bit world for now, until you get a basic 64 bit signature control replacement for use in your 64bit PB Apps.

Chris (or anyone else)



once I find a 64bit OCX replacement will Powerbuilder (32bit development) allow me to add that OCX into an OLE object??



Thanks

Doug

Hi Doug .. great question!

No, the IDE will only interact with 32bit OLE or OCX objects currently. You will have to wait until the IDE goes fully 64bit compliant.

The workaround for now would be to use dynamic user objects that would instantiate the OLE container via PowerScript control only. A bit of a PIA I must admit.

Regards ...Chris
