with this, I can fully agree, as far as using non-LE tools with LE. I'd love to be able to use Gelint with LE... Having said that, if the Eiffel market leader decides to go another way, would you want to have committed to following the market leader, merely to have a compatible compiler?
LE has been dormant (to be honest, I thought it was dead) for 3 years. During these years, the company I work for and some other users of Gobo were still using ISE Eiffel. So yes, following the market leader was the best choice. Will it still be the best choice in 2 or 3 years from now? Perhaps LE will be dead again by then. Perhaps ISE will decide to go another way and therefore break the code of all its customers. We'll see... -- Eric Bezault mailto:ericb@gobosoft.com http://www.gobosoft.com
