If you're primary development target is forms, reports and menus, then Oracle CASE is the only real choice. Everything is done declaratively, e.g. no pseudo-code. CASE takes ERD, FHD, DFD and CRUD and converts it to database and module design information, which is then used to generate the database, Oracle Forms, Reports, Menus.

IEF has more analysis techniques available, but to get code generation, you have to write pseudo-code.
