Our present deployment has a modular approach where each module is deployed as an exe. The deployments presently are built in PowerBuilder 12.5. Each of these modules\exes have their respective PBDs residing in the same folder in a citrix environment.
We have migrated one of the "modules" to PowerBuilder 2017 and will be deploying that shortly. From what is understood is the 12.5 apps can coexist in the same folder as the PowerBuilder 2017 app. Meaning the runtime files are separate and each exe will use accordingly.
But here is the question, once we move to PowerBuilder 2019 and compile an app or some set of these module exe(s) will they be able to coexist in the same folder as the 12.5 versions and PowerBuilder 2017 versions?
Note: We are aware the runtime are different for each version of PowerBuilder, but what about the common files between each runtime.
This was an inherited deployment standard from years ago and multiple vendors creating the modules, so it would be difficult to change.
The skinny, can we have PowerBuilder 2017 built apps in the same folder as PowerBuilder 2019 built apps?
