Hi,
I'm using a trial version of PowerBuilder Universal with PB 2019, and I'm trying to work through my list of unsupported features. There is one category of unsupported features I don't understand: "Identifier not found". In my report, I'm getting a list of about 12 custom classes of mine that it says it can't find ("Can not found identifier 'n_cst_datetime'", for instance). I've checked the library list that comes up in the dialog just before I kick off the Unsupported Features report, and the PBL with that object clearly IS in the library list, so I don't understand why the report throws this error.
If it were just an issue with the report and not PowerServer itself, I wouldn't be as concerned, but when I try to run my deployed application in a web browser, as soon as the code hits a line with one of those objects referenced, it "skips" back to an earlier spot in the code, seemingly in a loop. For instance, right now I can't get past the login window on my application: I enter my password, but in the password validation logic, it's hitting one of these objects and then it seems to jump back to allowing me to edit my password and click OK again. I've stepped through it with the debugger and observed this behavior, too. So my thinking is, I probably need to resolve that "identifier not found" problem for the deployed web app to function correctly. However, I can't figure out why it thinks that identifier is not found.
Has anyone had a similar issue to this in their own migration? What am I missing?
Thanks,
Tom
