[WDSCI-L] Article on RSE vs SEU

["Phil Coulthard" <coulthar@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Paul, I hadn't seen that article before, thanks for pointing it. I think
you are referring
to Marty's quote, from MKS, one of our business partners:

"you can really do native development faster [with RSE] than
with SEU."

This means that RSE is designed overall to make you more productive than
SEU,
even though little things here and there, such as opening a random member
for the
first time, may be "faster in SEU". But given the verifiers, and F1 help
and content
assist, iSeries Projects, and so on, over the course of a week you will be
able to do
more work with RSE than with SEU, once a certain level of competency is
reached
in the new tool set. That is, you should see an overall gain in
productivity, making
your overall development effort "faster" than it was with SEU. That is most
certainly
our goal, and what we have seen in the 11 years of CODE, even though it too
had to
deal to network latency for the initial file open, and didn't have the
ability to cache the
members between sessions.

Hope this helps.
