I recently received
feedback from a reader
regarding the content and
direction of PBDJ. He was
concerned that the number
of articles on
PowerBuilder
client/server was
decreasing. He is
correct.
Today's wide acceptance
of distributed
development and Web
enabling applications
have led many a developer
to believe that J2EE
represents the only
'real' solution for
Web-enabling
applications.
In the October 2001 issue
of PBDJ (Vol. 8, issue
10), I discussed four
things about Sybase that
concerned me, and
apparently many readers

good news is that Sybase
is apparently listening

The current PSR
compatibility issues
between PowerBuilder and
the PowerJ Java
DataWindow can be
resolved using
PowerScript and Java
source to pass a
DataWindow object's
FullState, bringing your
PowerBuilder reporting
applications into the
Java realm.
I recently received a
copy of PowerJ 4 for
evaluation. As a
PowerBuilder developer
turned Java developer, I
was particularly
interested in the Java
DataWindow. I had
developed JDBC software
using a Java control
known as the JTabl...
The mission of Sybase's
PowerJ development team,
based in Waterloo,
Canada, was to produce
the best Java development
IDE for Sybase customers
and the best integrated
IDE for EAServer.. PowerJ
4.0 (Vancouver) will soon
be generally a...
In this three-part
series, you will learn a
process for developing
EAServer components. This
series focuses on
PowerBuilder component
development, but the
practices discussed can
easily be applied to any
language.
'Web services are a new
breed of Web application.
They're self-contained,
self-describing, modular
applications that can be
published, located, and
invoked across the Web.
Web services perform
functions, which can be
anything from s...
Sybase announced that
