Hi,
SQL Anywhere 16 / PB 2017 R2 #1756
We have a comprehensive Win32 system that we have been maintaining for quite a few years, but are looking at possibilities of starting to port some of the crucial segments of it to a web interface, at first in small steps, just basic functionality for entering trades or stationary data in the database through IE/Chrome/FF.
We have just migrated to PB 2017 from 11.5, but had no time to do a lot of research about other development tooklits that come with Powerbuilder, namely PowerServer and PowerMobile. I understand PowerMobile is used mainly to deploy PB to tablet/mobile environments such as Android and iOS.
However, does it (or other parts of Powerbuilder toolkit) offer the possibilities to quickly publish datawindows to HTML / other ML web forms, and regenerating some of the powerscript code to, for example, JS? We are trying to see what is the optimal and quickest way to reuse any of the components of our PB application to create the smaller scale web application?
Perhaps this is not possible through PowerServer/PowerMobile, but if there are some options for this, we'd warmly appreciate a few pointers, opinions, and links towards the literature or guides.
Thanks
