The purpose of the thesis is to present the migration from the development environment PowerBuilder 12.5.2 to environment PowerBuilder 2019 R2. The company 3Tav uses the integrated development environment PowerBuilder as a development environment, but due to a slightly older version from 2012 updates are needed, therefore we decided to start planning program updates as a part of the diploma thesis, with which we want to make programs even more logical to use, and above all to update them on a visual level.
In the first part, we will present the company, then the basic logic and operation of PowerBuilder 12.5.2 which are the same in all versions. Later, we will describe all the changes that have taken place in the last seven years and have proven to be the most useful to apply in updates showing the practical application of the implementation. We also explored the possibilities of using components developed by PowerBuilder developers to make our work easier and speed up the updating of our programs. In a practical part, we used newly acquired knowledge to renovate the 3Tav environment intended for launching programs in our IS21 information system. We have documented the entire process, and we also provide a comparison of performance and appearance before and after the renovation.
