Source control in PB2017 and 2019 was improved to no longer export all objects into a common folder. It now creates a subfolder for each PBL and extracts it's source there. This avoids the problem of having objects with the same name in multiple PBLs...

With Powerbuilder 12, Orca script didn't work for our project because we have some complex dependancy in the project.
With the version 2017 R3, th...
