Dynamic Function Creation

[Antony]

Hi everybody,

How to create dynamic function / objects in powerbuilder 10.x.
I create global function using pborca.exe (orca), calling thru a batch
file it is working, but it is taking little time.
Any other commands/way to create dynamic objects.

Thanks in Advance
Antony

The PBORCA_LibraryCreate function works well directly from PB. You can then
use the AddToLibraryList function to add it to your application.

If you already have a batch program that can create the objects, you could
use my RunAndWait object to run it from your app.

Instead of adding a function and pbl to your library list you could
compile an object and invoke it via ole.

// compile class into ls_pbl
...

// then execute it
oleobject loo_appl, loo_object
loo_appl=create oleobject
loo_appl.connecttonewobject('PowerBuilder.Application.'+string(il_version))
loo_appl.librarylist=ls_pbl
loo_object = loo_appl.CreateObject(ls_class_name)
loo_object.of_method()

As a bonus you can run code in any installed version of powerbuilder,
with any other pbl's / pbd's in the library list.
