Reverse engineering PowerBuilder
You can reverse engineer PowerBuilder NVO (non-visual objects) into an
OOM from either of the following sources:
♦ PowerBuilder applications
♦ SRU files
For each reversed PowerBuilder object, a class is created in the model, with
the same name and containing the same information. When you reverse
engineer an object that has the same name as a class that already exists in a
model, you can choose in the Merge Model window either to replace the
existing class, or to keep the existing class definition in the model.
You can reverse only the following PowerBuilder User Objects:
♦ Custom Class
♦ Standard Class
♦ Custom Visual
♦ External Visual
♦ Standard Visual
Reverse engineering PowerBuilder options
You define PowerBuilder reverse engineering options from the Reverse
PowerBuilder dialog box.
