Exploiting Enterprise Generation Language for Business Oriented Developers

Enterprise Generation Language (EGL) is specifically designed to help the traditional developer leverage all the benefits of the Java and COBOL platform, yet avoid learning all of its details. For example, developers write their business logic in EGL source code, and from there, the EGL tools generate Java or COBOL code, along with the runtime artifacts you need to deploy the application to the desired platform. This paper first provides some background into EGL's conceptual foundation. It then describes EGL at a high level, along with the motivations for employing such a language and its development environment. The paper goes on to present more details of EGL as it pertains to building applications. Finally, it provides some insight into the architecture behind an EGL-based application.
