Re: EGL FUD

Why would you say that, Aaron? Look at the advancements in RPG vs. Java
over the past ten years. The syntax advancements in the language to support
ILE and free-format absolutely dwarf the changes made to the basic Java
language. Hell, it took Java this long just to get generics!


Language advancement is more than syntax which is where I was going with
that statement. For example, I would consider VARPG an advancement of the
RPG language. That had a combination of a lot of things including runtimes,
syntax, UI componets, etc. If you look at the big picture, RPG can't hold a
candle to Java/C#.NET concerning advancements.
