Integrated Foundation Classes (2024R3) Production Released!
"THE" Framework for
PowerBuilder 2022 R3 &
PowerServer 2022!
This build also includes a new Utilities sub-folder that now includes an updated STATS and ADMIN PB Apps. The Stats App will take the statistics tracking file from the PB 2022R3 OrderEntry App (and any PB App that you build using this framework) and allow you to diagnose the Apps execution data (automatically captured), as follows:
It will be interesting to compare a PB 2022R3 execution profile with a migrated PB 2025 execution profile (still on my ToDo list). ;-)
The Admin App will allow you to control any STD Framework based App's INI file to secure any and all DBMS connection settings so that they cannot be read either in the App's related INI file. Also, the STD Framework loads any TO with the INI data and then randomly encrypts all transaction objects differently in memory so that memory scrapers cannot decipher the Transaction Object's settings either - even if they did figure out the INI encryption (which is totally configurable). The in memory encryption mechanism changes every time you run the App and is also different for every instance of a TO. This feature also supports PowerClient and PowerServer Apps as well!
The INI encryption can be different for any number of TO objects used by any PB App and supports PS Server DBMS & DB Instance redirection as well. ;-)
Class Definition Viewer ...
Even includes all extended properties added by the STD Framework to all object classes and their current values!
Automatic Ribbon Bar feature (workspace & solution) ... "Look Ma no coding" when migrated to PB 2025 Beta and the DisplayMenuAsRibbonBar property is turned on! ;-)
Drag & Drop Tab Pages within any Tab Control (workspace or solution based App) ...
Note: Only one property to set in any Tab Control ...
Support for using a Web Cam ...
Web Browser Control Logging / Tracing ...
