The setup program lets you choose which PowerBuilder components to install.

Components
Component Description
PowerBuilder Base Components Installs the ODBC driver, ORCA Software Development Kit (SDK), the PowerBuilder Document Object Model extension, the ability to save DataWindow objects as PDF using the distill or XSL-FO methods, support for rich text, support for EAServer, and JDK 1.6. You must install the base components: you cannot unselect this option.
.NET Targets Available under PowerBuilder Base Components, deploys Windows Forms, smart client, and Web Forms applications to .NET, and deploys NVOs as .NET assemblies and Web services.
PowerBuilder .NET The PowerBuilder .NET IDE hosts the Visual Studio isolated shell and is designed for full compliance with the common language specifications for .NET. Used for deploying WPF Windows applications, .NET assemblies, PB assemblies, WCF services, and WCF clients to .NET.
Native Database Interfaces Interfaces that enable you to interact with server databases natively. Expand the tree view to select interfaces to install.
ADO.NET Driver Interface to connect to databases using an ADO.NET data provider.
OLE DB Driver Interface to connect to databases using an OLE DB data provider.
JDBC Driver Interface to connect to databases using JDBC.
SCC Interface Interface for connecting to any source code control system that supports the Microsoft SCC interface.
DataWindow Web Control for ActiveX The DataWindow Web Control for ActiveX is a fully interactive DataWindow control. It requires a browser that supports ActiveX.
PB Native Interface An SDK for developing extensions to PowerBuilder in C++. Optional wizards are installed in Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio .NET 2002 and 2003 if they are available on your system.
EJB Client The EJB Client PBNI extension, which enables you to develop clients for EJBs running on J2EE-compliant servers.
Web Services The extensions and other files that enable you to create clients for Web services using the .NET or EasySoap Web service engines.
PowerDesigner Plug-in A plug-in that provides the class diagram functionality of the OOM inside the PowerBuilder development environment.
Tutorial Source files for the tutorial in the Getting Started book. If you want to do the PowerBuilder tutorial or use the code examples, install SQL Anywhere 12.0 or later if it is not already installed on your computer. When you install PowerBuilder, the setup program creates an ODBC data source for the demo database. If SQL Anywhere is not installed on your system when you install PowerBuilder, setup does not install the demo database, code examples, or tutorial files.
Demo Database A SQL Anywhere database used in the tutorial, the Code Examples sample application, and examples in the documentation.
Code Examples The Code Examples application, which demonstrates many coding techniques, and the Web DataWindow PBL, which can be used as a model for a custom Web DataWindow server component.
Translation Toolkit Tools to help you translate applications into other languages.
PowerBuilder Resource Monitor A utility to help determine whether there are sufficient USER/GDI resources available in the operating system to open a painter.
PowerBuilder Runtime Packager A tool that packages files required for deployment into an MSI file.
