PowerDesigner for PowerBuilder Features Summary

PowerDesigner 9.5 正反向生成完全支援所有PowerBuilder 物件

支援 libraries (.pbl) and source files (.sr*)

支援 PowerBuilder 6, 7, 8 and 9 等版本 提供 PowerBuilder 工具列 模組驗證 PDM 正反向生成 PowerBuilder extended attributes

Problem Statement

PowerBuilder 開發者並未進行系統設計階段 .

PowerBuilder 開發之系統沒有系統文件及良好架構 .

工程師離職後系統難以維護 .

PowerDesigner Value Proposition

幫助使用者了解應用程式是如何開發的 . 幫助使用者以視覺化界面了解物件間之關係 .

幫助使用者修改及分析現有程式碼 . 正向再生成 PowerBuilder 應用程式 .

生成 HTML 及 RTF 格式之文件及報表 .

Reverse Engineering PowerBuilder Applications

Application, User Object, Structure, Function, Window, Proxy 轉成 class structure

其他物件如 DataWindow, Query, Pipeline, …), 則將原始程式碼轉至 Class 之 Script 中 .

反向生成支援 libraries (.pbl) 及 source files (.sr*).

Reverse Engineering PowerBuilder Applications

提供反向生成選項 .

提供 PowerBuilder System Classes and PFC library的模組來顯現父物件 , 可了解系統全貌 .

Displaying PowerBuilder Objects in Class Diagram

A class diagram shows packages, inheritances, associations, dependencies, attributes, operations.

Each library is represented by a package.

A stereotype and a mini icon shows the type of object.

The dependencies show which menu or data window is used by which window.

Window, user object, application, structure, function and proxy are represented as classes and the code is regenerated from the class definition.

Other objects are represented as classes by the source code is kept and are not regenerated from the class definition.

Controls are represented by inner classes.

Designing PowerBuilder Applications

create, modify, delete objects or links.

PowerBuilder 工具列建立物件 .

定義 interfaces 及 implement interfaces, 生成時會忽略Interface.

預覽 PowerBuilder code.

直接由預覽畫面編輯 PowerBuilder code.

以 RTF format 編寫程式規格 , 且可直接以 Word 來編輯description 或 annotation.

生成 HTML 或 RTF formats 之文件報表 .

Defining Inheritances

A parent class could be a shortcut representing a class defined in another model for example for system classes.

Defining Events

Events are represented as operations.

An Event could be an operation with the «event» stereotype, with a language event or with an extended attribute EventID (pbm_*).

Overriding Properties

In the Attributes tab of the class property sheet, the Inherited button allows you to select the properties to override.

Previewing PowerBuilder Code

Window, User Object, Application, Structure, Function and Proxy, Source code 是由 Class definition 中產生 , 可有Preview 中瀏覽或修改 .

DataWindow, Menu, Query 等 , 由 Script tab 中瀏覽或修改 .

Verifying the Model

You could use the Check Model function to verify if the model is well defined.

There are PowerBuilder specific checks.

Generating PowerBuilder Applications

You can generate PowerBuilder objects into libraries or source files.

You can select the objects you want to generate.

Future Direction

PowerDesigner 10.0 will support tight integration with PowerBuilder 10

PowerBuilder 10 will be able to embed PowerDesigner views inside PowerBuilder

PowerBuilder will be able to control PowerDesigner PowerDesigner will generate complete PowerBuilder

application code (post 10.0)
