I guess I should have prefaced all that I said with "IMHO".

In my experience, writing C code that does business logic is
significantly more complex than RPG code.  I have to be concerned with a
number of details that RPG takes care of for me automatically (memory
allocation, buffer management, etc).

Having a class that writes creates a CSV string is trivial ... but what
about exploding a bill of materials?

That's complex no mater what language you use.  I've done it in RPG ...
and contemplated it in C ... RPG wins hands down.

I'm not saying that C isn't a good language, but (again, IMHO) it's not
the tool *I* would choose to write a business application in.

Again, JMHO.
