I read one paragraph that said GDIT 'normally' used LC as a RAD tool but then noted that it had recently made several one-off LC standalone apps. The rest of the article went on the basically describe one of these LC apps - MSAT and included the shocker that the whole thing was constructed "without a single line of code written by a software engineer". The article says to me; If you need a mission critical life vs death piece of battle proof software and you need it fast, then prototype it in LC and build it something else. But, if you only need to simulate the overall dynamics of a massive naval battle anywhere around the globe, in real time, quicktime, or replay time, then LC can do that for you, no problem. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
