Maybe it's just that none of us know the answer. If RWD isn't free, most of us wouldn't have the opportunity to get it.

Subject: Re: [WDSCI-L] What's the difference? WDSC vs RWD


So am I the only one on the list who doesn't know the answer to this
question?

Hi,

Quick question about the differences between WDSc 7.0 and Rational Web
Developer 6.0. I've got both installed on my machine here at work, and
RWD at home. I'm trying to decide if I should install the WDSc at home
or
not and which one of the two I should concentrate on. I know that
obviously 7.0 is newer, but I don't know if that is really comparing
apples to apples as one is WDSc and the other is Rational.

I opened the perspectives to see what might be different, and WDSc has 5

perspectives that RWD does not: CVS Repository Exploring, Data, Plug-in
Development, Rule Builder, and Team Synchronizing. I'm not sure I'd ever

need any of those but Plug-in Development sounds interesting in the
future....
RWD has 2 perspectives that WDSc does not: iSeries Editing, and J2EE.
Both
have iSeries Projects and RSE so I'm covered either way for the daily
grind, but what about the Data perspective vs. iSeries Editing? Which is

better or are they the same but with different names?

I'm still a little confused about where the Rational tools fit in with
the
WDSc tools.....Why can't IBM name something once and leave it that way?
=)
