Dave I only know that Genexus claims to be the first Intelligent Development tool but since it generates code, I am not convinced by the claim. I believe that a truly Intelligent tool would not require any coding or program generation. I do not know what sort of project you wish to develop but hope you will not mind me sending you details of our tool which has rather better claims to be intelligent, since it allows complex applications to be created without, most of the time, the need to code or generate any new programs. This means that maintenance is much simpler and can often be done whilst applications are live, even when the database structure is being changed. Our Neural Database for the AS/400 allows application development without a detailed specification, without physical database design and, most of the time, without coding or generation of new programs. The applications can handle very complex data and images in relational, hierarchical and network structures, all integrated with each other. Simple applications can be developed in just a few minutes and more complex ones (with, say, 20 entity types) in a few hours by multiple concurrent developers. All are Internet ready, have journalling, commitment control, can handle many-to-many relationships, have an audit trail for both data definition and user data and are totally integrated, without redundant data. Data definitions and applications can be changed whilst applications are live. The Neural Database was written in RPG. It uses only 8 physical files, however many entity types there are, and no logical files. Response times are typically one tenth of similar traditionally created applications running on the same AS/400 model and the database is very scalable. I am attaching a short description of the product. If you are willing to let me know what sort of project you are working on, I could tell you whether I think ERROS might be appropriate.
