Re: The Truth About EGL

Bob,

This is an interesting point that you have exposed.

If customers make a request for an RPG based Web UI, then they are looking
for it to be within RPG. Offering them a new language, or language
generator, to resolve this issue would seem to be a case of not listening to
the customer's request.

I have not had the chance to use EGL yet, and with the new cost per seat
added to EGL, I can be very sure that I will never get a chance to use it
where I currently work. If this is IBM's opinion (or at least yours) as
the UI I should be going to in my RPG programming, why is it not included
in what I already pay for the RPG compiler? We now pay one price for all
compilers and WDSC, but to use the new UI that we should be going to costs
extra?
