  24. Retain DataWindow Retrieval Arguments • Stored with target information in registry • Not applicable at runtime

  25. Web TreeView DataWindow

  26. Additional TreeView DataWindow Features • Zero-height detail band supported • Repositioned rows retain their collapsed/expanded state • Standard TreeView events added to DataWindow control

  27. Web Services DataWindow Data Source • Deliver data to DataWindow via a Web Service • Supports disconnected client model • Eliminates requirement that vendor’s client software reside on end-user machine • Web Service ‘result set’ support • Data type support • Simple data type (or array of simple data types) • Non-nested structure (or array of structures) • Method retrieval options • Return value • Reference output parameter

  28. Web Service DataWindow Definition PowerBuilder Web Service support using the .NET engine Generated .NET Assembly Metadata DataWindow Painter WSDL A DataWindow Object
