ERM: Re: Legacy COBOL or PL/I to C++ or Java Well, I left that statement alone because most people aren't going to want to hear what I have to say. I've been a legacy code developer for many years. The "migration" to client server platforms has been an ongoing activity for several of those years. I have yet to see a language conversion tool that lives up to its expectations. The language conversion works, but that's not the "rest of the story". The switch to client server is more than just a language conversion. It is an environment conversion. Legacy programs that are batch oriented, or TP monitor oriented (CICS, IMS, ISPF, etc.) are not typically very useful when converted to client-server which is a far more user-interactivity model. For me, anyway, this announcement is a major "ho-hum" ... Regards, TED (#6262 a double!)
