PowerServer project debugging
You can now debug a PowerServer project, 32-bit or 64-bit,
directly in PowerBuilder IDE. Except for the differences listed below,
the PowerServer Debugger has the same toolset as the PowerBuilder
Debugger. You can insert breakpoints, step in/over/out the scripts,
add/remove watch, and use quickwatch, exactly in the same way as
PowerBuilder Debugger.
Unique requirements for PowerServer
project debugging
-
The debugging project candidate must already be
deployed. -
The application .exe (including Cloud App Launcher) must
already be downloaded to the local machine.
PowerServer debugging platform
configuration
-
Whether to debug the project as 32-bit or 64-bit shall be
configured in the platform setting in the project configuration
settings (Client App > Basic).
What’s Debugged
-
PowerServer debugging is performed on the compiled
PBDs. -
PowerServer projects are debugged against the PowerServer
runtime, therefore, you will see the return values from the
PowerServer Web APIs during the debugging process.
