Re: EGL and RPG - The Fastest Path to the Future

Egads,

OK Joe.
So I should try this EGL and see. I know you espouse Java and I cannot
comprehend Java, to me I might as well try to code in assembler, and
I get so frustrated with Java that I cannot do the code. I hope EGL
is not the same as Java.

It takes time to learn, even a simple editor,WDSCi, took me years to
come to grips with.

FWIW I think the EGL page in the midrange wiki is in the wrong place,
it's under WDSCi it should be under category Languages IMO.

I intend to use the Wiki and add/change it as I see the need, but I
reckon this will take me at least a year to do.
So much for the 90 day trial.
For now I have no idea even where to start, I will research the
postings to midrange.

As for convincing my management to ante up for EGL, well you should
have seen the problems I had to get my PC upgraded to be able to
handle WDSCi. Even if I do get EGL approved, my fear is, it will
become shelfware, and I will be ridiculed for tilting at windmills
again.

If you get started and then exceed the demo period, you might be able to
uninstall and re-install, but I don't know that for a fact. I highly
recommend the online instructor led courses that are available when you
do decide to begin, and I'd plan the installation around the dates of
the course. You may find it productive enough to warrant purchasing the
product, which is what I did, which will add some incentive to use it ;-)
