Thank you for the above. What I want to archive is to run the entire application in c#. In my case I have developed an application in powerbuilder and deployed to the cloud using powerserver and it's running successfully. My client is having the problem of installing a cloud app launcher for the first time on users' machines for the web app to run. I thought instead of starting afresh why don't I reuse the code by converting to c# where you don't install cloud app loucher when running the web app. After deployment users can access the link and run the web application on both windows and mac O/S.I love powerbuilder and i don't have plans to change to any other tool yet. The application I develop is a big one and it has taken me time to reach this point. So starting other tools is something not at the moment.

Sounds good. There is no plans to support macOS. Very few of our customers have such requirement, but out of those that do many use remote desktop as workaround.

I've seen quite a few intents of migrating powerbuilder apps to any other language. They all produced huge costs, overpassed estimation times and ALL failed. I haven't seen a single success story. So I think Armeen is very right, stick with powerserver (or re-build from scratch).

Hi Matthews,

We have a couple of tutorials on the matter. Namely, PB to C#: Migrating Re-factored Business Logics (NVOs) and PB to C#: Porting Business Logics with Minimum Refactoring Hassle

Also, here's an introduction and overview to PowerScript Migrator Working with PowerScript Migrator

Hope this resources help you
