Re: What's New and Worthwhile?

[Marco Facchinetti <facchinetti@xxxxxxxxx>]

Our target was to change the user interface to a 5250
application but preserving the RPG core and our programmers
skill.
We choose VisualAge RPG, is a good (and stable) compromise
between 5250/RPG and Windows/RPG.
The learning curve for an (ILE) RPG programmer to VisualAge
RPG is short.
