Where can I find documentation for the actual PowerBuilder language. I am referring to the kind of code you get when you select “Edit Source” from a right-click menu on the library painter. Not the kind of code you normally write.
There is no official documentation on the PowerBuilder syntax language that you see when you do Edit Source. Most that work with it have just had to use trial and error to figure it out. It has been asked before in the newsgroups about a syntax file so a parse could be built for it, but never provided. Here is a post talking about it
I believe the next version of PowerBuilder will be moving away from that syntax to a more XML based format (and moving from PBL’s as binary files to a text based format).
