Because you are not providing an already developed code base for people to work with, that _ultimately_ translates into the fact that they have to write code. Your "framework" is therefore just a bunch of unnecessary mental organization layers. That is what code folding and well placed comments are for. People still end up having to write code. And there are serious limitations with your tool as well such as the ability to easily debug the code that people write. Let me make this clear: NO ONE...and I literally mean NO ONE will use your framework until YOU write every possible piece of code anyone could ever possibly need. ONLY THEN can you claim no code needs to be written ever again. NOT before then. Don't make claims that aren't true. As of the date of this writing, your claims of not having to write any code are NOT TRUE. Period. From my perspective you are lying. Lying is a terrible marketing tactic. > 2 - The Interactive languages (RPWI Packages) are 100% without code > This is what i talk about You are just talking about the high-level stuff that comments are made of. Pointless and useless. According to YOU, people still have to write the code at the lower layers to get the upper layers to work. The Safe C++ library and application layer methodologies are all a software developer needs (and, IMO, are a far superior approach). The extra stuff your app. adds basically equate to folded functions in one-line comments. Nico seemed interested in your product. I'd love to know what he thinks now that you have stated he'll have to write code for every aspect of database access for three different database products. -- Thomas Hruska CubicleSoft President Ph: 517-803-4197 *NEW* MyTaskFocus 1.1 Get on task.
