There is no | better prototyping setup I've found. There are CASE tools which are | less expensive than Case:W, but none better, or, IMNSHO, even as | good. The Borland crowd will, of course, disagree. That is their | mission, and I respect it, if not their opinions, to which they are | entitled. Well, having not used QuickCase:W, I cannot share an opinion on it, to which I am entitled, and for which you will have no respect anyway. But, since it is my mission to do so, I'll share an opinion on another product. Protogen is getting better all the time and does a pretty good job of banging out an application in any of the major languages and application framework packages you might care to use. And the price is quite good. Most importantly, you can get a rather nice C++ program from it. (QuickCase:W may be able to do this as well, but that doesn't help much when using Quick C.) | Actually, though, dollar for dollar, you won't get a better deal | than QC with QC:W, no matter how hard you try. Dollar for dollar there's probably no better deal than a Lada. But would you want to drive one every day? I expect that Turbo C++ for Windows and Protogen are a pretty good value as well. -- Kim Letkeman kim@Software.Mitel.COM -- Kim Letkeman kim@Software.Mitel.COM
