Transoft
FlexGen
Transoft's FlexGen product suite is described as a "best-of-breed"
integrated Rapid Application Development (RAD) environment.
With technology built around a central, active repository,
FlexGen provides COBOL developers with a rich set of integrated
modules that significantly increase programmer productivity
and reduce costly maintenance activities. It offers all
the benefits of COBOL without the drawbacks.
"Our developers are
thrilled with the results. They like the new toolset,
increased
flexibility and more productive environment. Previously
it might have taken an hour to set up, submit, compile
and link a job - now it's done automatically by FlexGen."
Gary
Fairbanks, Manager Systems & Programming, Empire

FlexGen, though a true 4GL Language and Visual Screen
design environment, produces structured, fully documented,
ANSI-standard code for ACUCOBOL, Micro Focus, and Ryan-McFarland
COBOL.
Typically a program that requires 1,000 lines of COBOL
code, can be generated with only 60 or 70 lines of FlexGen.
Basic enquiry and maintenance programs require no code
at all! They can be generated automatically by simply
selecting the relevant data and required program type.
"Before
FlexGen we could only work on one project at a time
because
it was so time-
consuming. Now we've doubled our producitivity."
Shaun Presser, Manager, Wisconsin
Lift Truck Corp
FlexGen was first to pioneer an innovative 'thin client'
architecture for client/server applications that maximized
performance with application execution on the server,
with a GUI client-based presentation layer.
Today, hundreds of COBOL developers utilize FlexGen to
develop, enhance and maintain highly usable, customizable,
cross-platform business critical applications in a fraction
of the time required by traditional COBOL development
methodologies.
The benefits
- 10 times faster than conventional coding
- Optimizes utilization of existing COBOL skills and
resources
- Provides modern look & feel
- Applications are easy to customize to meet any user
requirement
- Applications can be deployed into a text or graphical
environment
- Greatly reduced maintenance costs
- Open systems operating system and database independence
- Portability - expands the software vendor's markets
and protects the end-user's software investment
- Automatic enforcement of programming standards and
automatic documentation with comprehensive and consistent
error reporting
- Cross referencing module enables automatic re-generation
of programs affected by any repository change - gives
total change control and completely eliminates the normal
manual tasks of identifying changes, coding and compiling
- The Easy Query facility provides the non-technical
executive user with a powerful, easy-to-use visual tool
with which they can produce ad-hoc reports
- COBOL dialect independence - applications can be
developed under one COBOL dialect and automatically
converted to another
