Automatic for the people

Modern large organisations need to be able to control complex software deployments using industrial-strength configuration managament and distribution tools.

It follows, then that in a heterogeneous environment consisting of Gen components and non-Gen components, there are parts of the Gen lifecycle that need to be automated – this includes code generation and building.

For the most part, Gen can work in this arena, as most of the generators (encyclopedia-based, anyway) have CLI (command line interfaces).  This works fine for online, batch, and client/server packaged components. Other types of packaging are not so controllable.

Once the code is generated, the compilation is usually straightforward enough to automate.

For Gen to be truly “Automatic for the People” (apologies to Mr. Stipe!) ALL types of packaging need to be controlled by the command line as well as though the toolset.
