When you deploy the core PowerBuilder runtime files, you must ensure that the msvcr71.dll and msvcp71.dll Microsoft C/C++ 7.1 runtime libraries and the Microsoft .NET Active Template Library (ATL) module, atl71.dll, are present on the user’s computer or server.
The PowerBuilder runtime files have a runtime dependency on these files and they are required for all applications and components that require the PowerBuilder runtime, including PowerBuilder .NET Web Forms applications, but Microsoft does not allow them to be redistributed with the Runtime Packager.
The Microsoft DLLs may already be installed on the server or the user’s computer. atl71.dll is installed with some operating systems but is not installed with Windows Server 2003. For more information about obtaining atl71.dll, see the Microsoft Web site.
Files must be installed before running MSI file
Some files installed by the MSI file generated by the PowerBuilder
Runtime Packager have dependencies on these files. For example, atl71.dll must
be installed on the user’s computer before the pbjvm110.dll can
be registered. Make sure these files are on the target computer
before you run the MSI file generated by the Runtime Packager.
Microsoft.Ink, Microsoft.Ink.dll, and Microsoft.Resources.dll are required if your application uses InkEdit and InkPicture controls. These files are part of the Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition Software Development Kit 1.7, which is available on the Microsoft Web site.
Microsoft has discovered some incompatibility issues between these DLLs and the .NET Framework 2.0. You can obtain an update to address these issues from Microsoft.
PowerBuilder .NET Web Forms can use Internet Explorer Web Controls to display the Tab, TreeView, and Toolbar controls. If you want to use these controls instead of the default RadControls, you can download IE Web Controls from the Microsoft Web site. For detailed information about installing the controls, see Deploying Applications and Components to .NET.
