PB 2019 R2 IDE using the Script Commenter!

         The STD Script Commenter is a significant enhancement to the way a PB developer works productivity wise by easily allowing code comments to be added to any object class in the current object painter's PowerScipt or declaration areas! The Script Commenter is based on the original commenter application by R.C. Sizer but has been totally refactored. The latest release includes the following new features ...

• Migrated the App code from PB2019 build 2082 to PB2019R2 build 2353
• Replaced STD Integrated Framework from v2019.4.0.140 to v2020.2.0.160
• Revised the code for better performance!
  

Mapping the Script Commenter in the PB 2019 R2 IDE

    The latest Script Commenter is designed to work with any Unicode version of PowerBuilder (v10.x through 2019 R2). It can be activated in any PB IDE by creating a toolbar short-cut icon and assigning to the Commenter's EXE as follows:

app path\ScriptCommenterXXX.exe  header
  - or -
app path\ScriptCommenterXXX.exe  block
  - or -
app path\ScriptCommenterXXX.exe  inline

• where XXX = Compiled type 32M, 32P or 64P

 

Watch the 2017 video (2019R2 version is the same)!

 

     The values added as a header, in-line or block comment area are located in the "Comment_Block.ini" file. This INI file can customized based on the values found in the "Comment_Template.ini" file to meet the exact needs of each PowerBuilder developer!
  

    You can download the new STD Script Commenter application from the STD Framework's SourceForge project's website by clicking here and then get more development productive in minutes!

 
Note: The previous PB2017Rx / PB2019GA Script Commenter versions are in the SourceForge's Archive sub-folder.

 

Enjoy!
