Advantage:GEN(6.5) is a CASE-TOOL. Its Previous Version is COOL:GEN(5.1). We can write complex programming in easy to understand code. And then we can generate code in COBOL or any other language from Advantage:Gen code. Debugging this cool:gen/advantge:gen code is very comfortable in case of errors. Only disadvantge is that it produces heavy codes(not easy to understand) with overheads.

I think the difference between the two is that Adv:GEN6.5 version has Endevor embedded in it for Version Control. This was not present in CoolGen5.1 version.

I have some very good books(which i got from my project) explaing A to Z of Cool:Gen coding and setup. Dont know if these books are available in the market.

Please correct me if i`m wrong.

Thanks
