I wonder where it leaves the code/platform conversion tools. We're evaluating RFIs for ADABAS/Natural and CA-GEN and I expect there's a bunch of others coming along.
The great CASE tool IEW, James Martin evangalisation of the 90's seems to have hit the buffers. There are conversions for these, however, mainly to Jave, C# or COBOL. Sure it's cool, however, I expect that Google have selfish motives for this. The words of a recruiter echo in my mind from 1990. "Wayne, if you don't have CASE, you are unemployable". We should do the predictions for the next 10 years. I'm still waiting for my flying car. Maybe the "Enter Go" Statement in COBOL would be a start.
