There are 27 programmers trying to develop a very large ground based processing system using C and C++. When 4 users log onto the Rational Apex system, the response time on the network increases to around 20 minutes. The system HAS been optimized about as much as the Gurus know how. At this time, there is a pending uprising within the working staff to eliminate it. Instead of a productivity improvement, it has brought development to a standstill. Almost everyone would rather go back to SCCS than continue with Apex. One users experience over the past 11 months. cheers...bob Damian O'Neill wrote in message ... >Hi, > >I'm trying to collect any thoughts, comments, suggestions or experiences that people have had in moving from a non-integrated development environment, e.g. vi for text editting, SCCS for CM, a third party compiler/debugger etc. to an integrated development environment, specifically Rational Apex supporting Ada95 and C++ in mid to large sized projects.
