Re: RDS vs c-compiler

Does anybody >have some thoughts I can use ? I can think of three advantages to C-Compiler: 1. Marginally faster batch processing. 2. May be more memory efficient if you have huge programs and zillions of users. 3. You might be able to get away with not using ESQL/C (but not really) Whereas RDS beats C-compiler with: 1. The debugger -- don't leave home without it! 2. Much faster compilation. 3. Marginally faster on screen IO-intensive stuff. IMHO, the debugger is enough of a reason for me to always use RDS... ;-) ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
