Besides building the project in the PowerBuilder IDE, you can also build the project with a command-line tool (PBAutoBuild220.exe).
PBAutoBuild220.exe is a standalone tool that can compile and deploy projects using DOS commands on Windows. It can automate the entire build and deploy process without requiring PowerBuilder IDE installed or any PowerBuilder license running; it is free for use!
PBAutoBuild220.exe requires PowerBuilder Runtime to run, so it must be installed to a machine where PowerBuilder Runtime will also be installed.
To install PBAutoBuild220.exe, run the PowerBuilder Installer and select PowerBuilder Utilities in the Programs tab.
