Introduction to PowerBuilder Object Cycle
Object Cycle is a relation database based version control system, sold by Powersoft. This product also supports Microsoft source control APIs and is tightly integrated with PowerBuilder. From within the Library painter, you can directly checkout PowerBuilder objects, and the versioning is taken care by this product automatically. Object Cycle client comes with PowerBuilder enterprise edition, however, you need to purchase Object Cycle Server separately. You don't have to stick to this product for versioning PowerBuilder objects. You can choose any third party vendor products as well—such as PVCS, LBMS, CCC, Endevor, SourceServer, etc. Sybase stopped shipping this product from EA Studio 3.0 onwards and they expect you to use third-party version control systems. PowerBuilder supports all version control systems that support Microsoft Source Control API.
