Re: hawkeye

Yes, Hawkeye Pathfinder has been on life support for years now. I must
have sent at least 10 emails to them requesting an eclipse interface,
and never got so much as a "thanks for your suggestion". No
acknowledgement AT ALL. They had previously stated in a newsletter
(years ago) that they would consider making a plugin if there was enough
interest. I can only assume they meant "if we're interested in waking
up the developer"...

Another sign of their coma, the product is currently at release 9.3, but
all documentation for this product is still labeled as V8.0. A phone
call reveals that "there was no new functionality added to the product
since v8, so no need to publish new manuals". Doesn't that seem odd? I
guess they want their paid support customers to think they're getting
something for their money...

Re: alternatives, you should look at Databoro x-analysis, or perhaps
ASC's abstract-probe.

We've been using Hawkeye for years and years. While we were using
CODE/400,
it didn't bother me that I had to use the green screen to use Hawkeye
since
I could customize it to open source members in CODE.

I can't do that with RDi, though. It's my understanding that Hawkeye
has no
intentions of ever producing an eclipse plugin. Does anyone have any
thoughts on Hawkeye alternatives that provide an eclipse plugin?

Thanks,
Phil
