The cycle is NOT easy to learn. Not a one of you found it intuitive when you
first learned it. It is only now that you know it that it is "easy".

Teach me Matching Records in 10 minutes. Where does *INZSR get called? Why
are the files getting opened without me opening them - show me where in my
code that is happening?

Easy - pah!

Free format RPG - now THAT is easy.

The difference is, the new techniques are easy enough to learn - and
there
is more support for them. RPG cycle, not so.


The cycle is easy enough to learn too, and I see very little support for
ILE techniques from anyone but the purists. I'm all for it, but as a
contractor on a month to month contract, I do what they ask. Sometimes
you
can convince them, but not often. Right or wrong, that's the reality
outside of a very few shops.
