Hiya I just returned from a conference for one of my major clients. They have a range of products written in everything from Revolution to C++. An interesting statement made when they were discussing my software: "If all our developers could do what Monte can do in the time he does it then we would be miles ahead of the competition." (I attribute that mostly to the fact that I'm developing in Rev obviously)
I was chatting to the developer of a world leading sport video analysis tool and it's all written in C++. He's 18 months behind in his development schedule. Anyway I said I use Revolution so he said let's test the speed v C++. So... what were the results? Rev was only 7 times slower in the tests we did. It was a simple adder in a repeat loop. He was very impressed and said he would download rev. I think he was expecting something like 50 to 100 times slower. He needs a dual G5 to get decent compile times for his 700 pages of C++. Maybe he was impressed that all I needed to do was click apply and then the button ;-) I should have got the Java developer there to do the same because I'm sure that would have proved interesting ;-) PS He came up with a cool idea of using a bundle as a custom file type so you can have a clickable file that's really an entire directory structure. Cool hey ;-) Wish bundles were cross platform.
