So, let me get this straight.

This is an application that you write code in a proprietary
language so it will spit out code in your language of
choice.  Write code that generates code.

The basis behind it being what?  Learn just the one
proprietary langauge and you can program in any language? 

Yes, interesting concept.  10 bucks says it generates
horrible code (or do we care?)

Coding, sure, it may be fine.  "Programming" on the other
hand... I don't see it happening.

When my schedule clears up I am going to look into this
new development
platform I learned about at COMMON Mnpls 2006 called
GeneXus.  I have seen a
demo and was impressed with the ease of creating a simple
app.  The basic
concept is that you develop in their proprietary syntax
and then generate
code for any number of languages from that proprietary
syntax. In concept
this is very cool because they take the "pain" out of
application
development by abstracting the stuff that takes forever
to do (ie putting
the framework pieces together) and instead the developer
is only concerned
about pumping out the next business logic app.  Almost
like the difference
between Java and RPG :-)
 
Ok, so here is what I am wondering.  Has anyone else on
this list used the
product and how do you like it?
 
TIA,
