Translating with DrWatson… this can take a few seconds the first time.
This is a genuine, complex translation. DrWatson protects commands, error codes, and log output while naturally translating the surrounding text. It’s translated once and saved.
Malc P found that the Rational 4GL-to-EGL conversion utility does not support I4GL programs that call ESQL/C, a problem since his main application calls several ESQL/C libraries. He asked whether this would change and had a support case open. Replies only discussed the Ashes cricket series and football. No answer on EGL support was given.

Morning mateys
In between watching England rubbing the Aussie noses in the dirt
(cricket, for the colonials amongst you. Like baseball (not) but
better) I've downloaded the Rational Application Developer V6 bundle (a
couple of Gb, which sorely p*ssed off my network admins here) and then
deploying it then having to download 4 fixpacks to get the 4GL/EGL
conversion utility (another Gb or so).
So far, so hoopy. I've even converted succesfully a cursor-based form
program, so progress has been made.
However - reading the conversion utility user's guide, there's a little
clause in the "Conversion Limitations" section, page 1-3 stating "I4GL
programs that call ESQL/C are not supported".
I have a case open with tech supp on this but wonder if there's anyone
out there in listland who knows whether this is ever going to change?
Our main app calls several ESQL/C lib files so short of rewriting them
in EGL we're stuffed.
Cheers
Malc

It has been a great ashes this time, even for a neutral follower like me (though
strictly speaking I am not neutral as I am rooting for Eng). Hope Eng does not
lose the last test.
