RE: [SYS21] Documentation Tools

["Jansson, Stefan" <stefan.jansson@xxxxxxxxx>]

You mean the technical documentation provided by Geac isn't sufficient for you?

I personally swear by Hawkeye Pathfinder, and miss it terribly where I am now.  
The trick to getting the data reliable for a S/21 application is in the 
substitution tables, where you point it to when the source isn't found (like 
the phantom OSLINX3 libraries, etc.).

We have the ASC equivalent installed (Aspect, I think), but I haven't gotten to 
dig into it to see if its functionality is similar to Pathfinder.

Hi Everyone,

 

Happy New Year.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions for documentation packages?  Preferably
AS/400 based. I looked at Hawkeye several years and if I remember correctly
it had difficulty working with some of the cross referencing of libraries
and custom stuff in System 21.  I also understand that this package is
basically the same as it was in the 80's.

 

Is anyone using Advanced Systems Concepts (ASC) Abstract product?  This
appears to do a lot of the same things as Hawkeye but is more GUI based and
interfaces with Visio to do things like flow charting.

 

Any and all comments appreciated.

 

Thanks--
