Software Requirements – PB Docs 2017

The following table lists
the software required for PowerBuilder features.

Install
any required framework packages and SDKs before you install
PowerBuilder. Microsoft developer software is available from the
Microsoft
Download Center.

Read this table carefully to
determine whether you need to install any software before you run
the setup program, and whether you need to install SQL Anywhere
before installing PowerBuilder. If you select a feature with a
prerequisite that is not yet installed, the setup program displays a
warning message.

Services (IIS) 7.5 or higher.

For information about configuring IIS, see
Deploying Components as .NET Assemblies or Web Services.

PowerBuilder tutorials, demo databases, and sample
applications

SQL Anywhere 12 thru
17.

SQL Anywhere can be downloaded from the
SAP Web site. If the setup program does not detect SQL Anywhere 12,
16 or 17 on your computer, it displays a warning.

If you
choose to continue, the setup program does not install the tutorials
or register the demo databases. To use these features later, install
SQL Anywhere first, then reinstall PowerBuilder.
