RE: What are the benefits of ILE?

[MWalter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Kathie,

We revamped our standards here to use RPGIV  and ILE concepts exclusively.
We currently use one consultant whose contract renewal was contingent on
his becoming at least somewhat fluent in this type of programming. He went
in kicking and screaming. But after a couple of months, he is pressuring
another of his clients into using these tools.

Just food for thought,

Mark

Kathie,

Why not do something on your own instead of having to be forced?  I feel a
person in our business should always be looking for better and easier ways
to accomplish things.

 I really really really do hope I get forced into using the newest, latest
 and
 greatest some day! The sooner the better!

 That's okay, Kathie, but you will have to learn ILE when you get
 the consulting job at the company that uses ILE.

 I don't believe, especially for consultants, that you have the
 choice anymore to use or not use ILE, it's going to be forced on
 you when you run into it.

 Just as C programmers who maintain other's code are forced to learn
 OOPs and program in C++.  I just hope I am never forced to learn
 C#.
