Does anybody know of any public domain or purchasable networked development environment suitable for the following ? o Managing multiple releases of software, both at source and release (object) level. o The ability to manage customer bespoke code within releases for different machines. ie produce release x.xx for customer y machine z. A scenario for this might be: Request source module x target machine y lock module get module modify module compile module for y (not necessarily this node) log changes to module update dependencies to module put module update release area for target y produce installable update/system for y unlock module End request module x o Ability to integrate with existing software o A mixed tcp/ip net consisting mainly of Sys V machines but also some AIX. Obviously certain of these functions are handled effectively by 'Make' and 'Sccs'. However these tools present a fairly 'raw' interface. What I am looking for is a higher level interface to such tools. Any help or information is gratefully received. _______________________________________________________________________________ Nick Price SRL Data || Apple link : UK0001 1 Perren Street London NW5 3ED || UUCP : nick@bilpin.uucp Phone: +44 1 485 6665 || Path : mcvax!ukc!icdoc!bilpin!nick

My company is also looking for SW development tools, as well as, trying to decide which platform (SUN or Apollo) would provide the best development environment. We are also looking for 4GL and CASE tools that will help improve our productivity. Code generation, code reusability, version control, etc..., i.e., backend CASE is our primary focus at this time. I would be glad to post a summary of information provided. I also feel that this subject is worthy of a separate newsgroup devoted to CASE tools. Are their others interested?
