ORCA is available to code partners, tool vendors, and customers who develop companion products and tools that manipulate and manage objects in PowerBuilder libraries for use with PowerBuilder.
To run ORCA programs
To run programs that use ORCA, you need the ORCA DLL (called PBORC.dll in PowerBuilder). When you install PowerBuilder, this DLL is installed in the same directory as other PowerBuilder DLLs.
To develop ORCA programs
To develop C programs that use ORCA, you need several items, available from the %AppeonInstallPath%\PowerBuilder [version]\SDK\ORCA (for example, C:\Program Files (x86)\Appeon\PowerBuilder 25.0\SDK\ORCA):
-
C development files
PBORCA.H
PBORCA.LIB
