For any supported feature, there may be usages that are not supported, such as specific events, properties or functions of an object. This list by no means includes every supported feature, but aims to capture those most commonly used in PowerBuilder applications. Appeon 6.5 Advanced Edition deploys PowerBuilder applications in pure JavaScript, while the Enterprise Edition additionally supports deployment with Appeon Xcelerator. Appeon Xcelerator enables the application deployed with Appeon to support additional PowerBuilder client/server features that cannot be implemented with pure JavaScript. For more information on supported PowerBuilder features, download the Appeon Supported Features Guide or Appeon Supported Features Help.
