AWDNUG August
Last night's meeting of the Albury/Wodonga .NET User Group was all about code generation. Anthony took us through some tools that he'd found while researching the topic, including DeKlarit and (one I hadn't heard of) Iron Speed.
We had a great discussion about the pros and cons of code generation, despite there only being six of us present. I wish I knew what happened to the other dozen-or-so people who used to turn up. Perhaps we're doing something wrong. Anybody out there involved in a user group with tips on getting and/or keeping members?
Anyway, I'm still keen to attend AWDNUG every month, even if it's the same five or six people showing up each time. It's great to talk to others about what they're up to and how they're solving problems ... particularly if they're from a completely different industry.

Amazing Tool which helps us to focus on business logic rather than repeated
page designing issues.We use it to develop N-Tier Database driven Applications which
are then customised to change its look and uses according to our Client's
requirement.We get bugs free Application in short time for our clients. We can make
even more complicated apps than before.Now with this tool we are able to cater to more clients.

I've been using IronSpeed for last few years. It has evolved greatly adding latest features such as AJAX and web reporting.
IronSpeed Designer quickly generates multi-tiered application with in minutes, including web user interface. Most other code generators are not capable of this. The code generated using IronSpeed is consistent and extensible.
The ability to generate pages as a configuration option is very powerful. With the new page types in Iron Speed Designer V5.2, I can add a dashboard or report page to web applications without any hand-coding.

We have used Iron Speed for custom software development on several projects of various types and sizes. Our customers have been very pleased with our responsiveness as requirements change. The fact that our clients can ask us to make database and UI changes and have those implemented in hours instead of weeks is a major benefit. This allows the client to "play" with a version of the application to "test" the business process and get back to us immediately with changes. The speed at which we can generate a new version of the application and the resulting customer satisfaction would not be possible without Iron Speed.
