Each client workstation needs the components in Table 33-9 to view a Web page containing a PowerBuilder window plug-in application.
Component |
Details |
---|---|
An Internet or intranet connection |
Available within your corporation or from an Internet service provider. |
A Web browser that supports Netscape plug-ins |
Available from the browser vendor. Examples are:
|
PowerBuilder deployment DLLs |
Install the PowerBuilder runtime DLLs as described in “PowerBuilder runtime files”. The PowerBuilder runtime DLLs belong in the application directory or in a directory on the system path. The PowerBuilder window plug-in DLL must know the location of the PowerBuilder runtime DLLs. To accomplish this, you can add the directory for the PowerBuilder deployment DLLs to the system path, or you can add the directory to the application path key for the browser (in the Windows registry). |
Standard or secure PowerBuilder window plug-in DLL |
If it is not there already, copy the NPPBA1050.DLL file (standard) or NPPBS1050.DLL file (secure) from the Internet Tools\Plugins directory to the browser’s Plugins directory. |
Other files |
If you did not include image resources in the PBDs, copy them to the paths specified in the object properties if they are not there already. If the plug-in application connects to a database, set up client software for the DBMS. For how to connect to a DBMS from the client machine, see Connecting to Your Database. |
