PowerSharp is an interface that allows you to call functions in standard PowerBuilder objects from C#.

Why do I need PowerSharp?

If you have business logic in a PowerBuilder application that you need to incorporate into a C# based web application, you could rewrite the logic in C# or just call the existing PowerBuilder code using PowerSharp. A C# rewrite could take several weeks while with PowerSharp it could be done in a day.

How does PowerSharp work?

PowerSharp consists of two parts, first is an unmanaged DLL written in C++ that uses PBNI to interact with your PowerBuilder object. The other part is a C# class file that is a wrapper for the DLL. The C# code requires .Net 6 or higher. PowerBuilder 10 and higher is supported, including 64bit with PowerBuilder 12.6 and higher.
