RE: [Easy400Group] ILE RPG or RPG/400

[Chet]

I have clients that are hanging onto RPG II and OCL tooth and nail.  It meets there current business needs so who am I to tell them otherwise.  There are more out there than most realize which is why all of us will always have plenty of work.   From: Easy400Group@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jon Paris Sent: Friday, February 17, 2006 11:29 AM To: Easy400Group@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [Easy400Group] ILE RPG or RPG/400   Sorry Chet - but my experience, IBM's and most users I have talked to says that RPG IV outperforms RPG III under most all circumstances.  Plus it has optimization options (including execution profiling based optimization) that are in a different league to that available for RPG III.   As to your " ... have no need ... " - do you really think there is anybody in that category?  Admittedly there are shops who _believe_ that.  The realization that such features really were needed after all comes at about the same time that the staff are informed that the iSeries is being replaced!!   Jon Paris    From: Easy400Group@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chet Sent: Friday, February 17, 2006 8:49 AM To: Easy400Group@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [Easy400Group] ILE RPG or RPG/400 Depends on the environment, if strictly an RPG shop and have no need for the additional features then go that route “strictly” from a performance stand point.  But if you shop needs to do CGI, and utilize all the features plus modular coding ability of ILE then that is the route to go.  Personal recommendation is ILE, too many goodies to pass up so why live in the past.     SPONSORED LINKS How to format a computer hard drive Cobol programmer Iseries 400 How to format a computer YAHOO!
