Workspaces and targets
In PowerBuilder, you work with one or more targets in a
workspace. You can add as many targets to the workspace as you want,
open and edit objects in multiple targets, and build and deploy
multiple targets at once.
A PowerBuilder target can be one of several types:
-
Application target
A client/server or multitier executable application. Most of
this book is concerned with building application targets. See
Working with Targets. -
.NET target
(obsolete).NET assembly and .NET Web service is considered to be
obsolete. The ability to use this technique has been retained for
backward compatibility.You may consider using the the section called “HTTPClient object” object as a replacement.
All of these targets can use PowerBuilder’s built-in language,
PowerScript.
You choose targets in the New dialog box. Here are the Target
types that are available in PowerBuilder:
