That's the nice thing about working with EGL: it does business. The
more I work with it the more I understand IBM's position that it's the
next great business language. First COBOL, then RPG, now EGL. No
other
language is as well suited for business logic. <snip>
No argument Joe - the absence of these constructs in other languages
is a major draw back.
I only wish that the deployment and debugging of EGL applications did
not seem to be so problematic. I know _you_ have no problems with it
- but you have extensive Java/JSF/JSP/J2EE/App Server experience. I
watch this list daily and all I see is problem after problem with what
it seems should be simple issues.
When the freebie version comes out I intend to have another go with
the product, but just how is one supposed to debug the problems when
all you see is a five mile long list of Java error messages? Any
suggestions on where to start with that?
