Re: What PB DLLs does PowerGen use to build applications?

I need to find out what version of PowerBuilder DLLs, such as libjcc.dll, pbdwe90.dll, pbodb90.dll, pbrtc90.dll, pbvm90.dll, PowerGen uses to build applications.  We are getting reports of a Sybase error which may be caused by a mismatch between the DLLs that are used to build the application and the DLLs that are loaded at runtime.  Does PowerGen use DLLs stored in the C:\Program Files\sybase\shared directory on the build machine or does it use them from some other source?

Re: What PB DLLs does PowerGen use to build applications?

PowerGen looks for DLLs in the standard Windows sequence  of places:

The EXE launch directory.
Windows directory.
Windows/System directory.
Path.

So if the .../shared directory is the first place these DLLs are found, PowerGen will load them from there.

FileMon ( MSFT / SysInternals ) is a very useful tool for profiling this type of behavior.

We're also delivering a tool with PowerGEn V7.0 that will let you profile apps. this way.
