Seeking Experienced Scripters to Trial New Development Tool

Hello. I've been working on the development of a new scripting design tool, that generates LSL code from graphical models based on a subset of the UML2.0 methodology.

 

The product is near-ready for a trial, and so we looking for a few experienced SL scripters who would be willing to try it out. Ideally, we're looking for people who would also have some familiarity with UML2.0's State Machine formalism, but this is not critical.

 

If you think you might be interested in joining the Alpha trial starting in October, please go to: www.miceonabeam.com for more information.

 

Thanks for your time.

Sounds good to me.  I was always wary of code-generators until Rose came along and the UML always seemed the best of the bunch when you needed something pretty but incomprehensible (apart from me) to show the boss. Has Rose died since IBM bought it, by the way?  Worst company I ever worked for, bar none.

No Rose is still developed & sold by IBM in a variety of versions under the Rational sub-brand. IBM has been buying out a number of competitors in the space and keep adding to their line-up of modeling and code-generation tools. Of course they're all priced around 2-3K each.

 

UML too has come a long way after it's initial consolidation of modeling methods. On the event-driven system modeling side of things, it's latest V2.0 specification for State Machine design is a big improvement. Still some incomplete parts of the spec., and some inconsistencies, but not too difficult to firm up with a few constraints (as we've done with MiceOnABeam).
