We are excited to announce that Appeon PowerBuilder 2017 R2 Japanese update version (build 1769) and Appeon InfoMaker 2017 R2 Japanese update version (build 1769) are now officially released and are available for downloading.

Updated Product Components

The below product components have been updated since build 1758, so their build numbers are now 1769:

• PowerBuilder IDE
• InfoMaker

The below product components are unchanged, so their build numbers are still 1758 in this release:

• PowerServer Mobile (PB Edition)
• PowerServer Toolkit
• PowerServer Help

Bug Fixes

A few important bugs, such as the SetRow-related bug, etc., have been fixed in this latest Update. You may see here for the detailed bug fixes for PowerBuilder and here for InfoMaker (Note that the bug fixes for this Japanese version are the same as the bug fixes for the English version).

Downloads

Please get the installers of this release from our Download portal.

Installation Notes

If you are currently using PowerBuilder 2017 R2 (build 1758), there are two options. You could:

• either uninstall the PowerBuilder IDE component before installing the component in this PowerBuilder R2 Update;
• or continue using PowerBuilder 2017 R2 (the previous build 1758) until we provide you a maintenance release that can be installed on top of build 1758. The maintenance release will provide the same updates/bug fixes as build 1769, and will soon be available in this April.

No matter which option you will take, it is unnecessary for you to install or update PowerServer Mobile, PowerServer Toolkit, and PowerServer Help.

We are excited to announce that PowerBuilder/InfoMaker 2017 R2 Localized Runtime Files are now available.

This distribution of localized runtime files works with PowerBuilder and InfoMaker 2017 R2 build 1769. It is the same for all the product editions (Standard, Cloud, and Universal).

The localized runtime files are provided for French, German, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish. With the localized runtime files, PowerBuilder/InfoMaker developers can deploy applications with standard runtime dialog boxes in the local language.

Please get the zip file of the localized runtime files from our Download portal.

We are excited to announce that Appeon PowerServer Build 1756 for Windows/Unix/Linux have been officially released and are available for downloading! 

A few bugs have been fixed in this MR version. Please first review the detailed Bug Fixes before you decide to upgrade your current version.

Installation/Upgrade Process:

1. Please get the proper installer from the links below.

2. An SHA256 hash code is provided for each installer. Please use the SHA256 code to verify the integrity of the downloaded installer file: you can get a sha256sum program from Internet (for example, at http://www.labtestproject.com/files/win/sha256sum/sha256sum.exe), and follow the instructions of the program to compare the SHA256 value of the downloaded installer file and the SHA256 value that is provided for the installer.

3. Please close PowerBuilder and stop your application server (for example, IIS, WebLogic, etc.), and then run the Appeon PowerServer 2017 Build 1756 setup file. Please make sure all the components (Appeon Server, and Appeon Workspace) have been upgraded together.

4. After the installation, please verify the product versions to make sure you have all pieces successfully upgraded:

• You need to start your application server and verify that AEM still works and displays the version Appeon PowerServer 2017 Build 1756.00;
• You also need to open Appeon Workspace and verify it also displays Appeon Workspace Build 1756.00.

5. Redeploy apps in a “Full Deployment” mode: once you have all the pieces upgraded, you now would need to do a “Full Deployment” of your applications to the upgraded Appeon PowerServer to refresh all the old application files in PowerBuilder 2017 or later.
