Project: Open Source MSVC to Delphi Translator

Home

Project history:

This project has arisen, when I have completely realized amount of works on translation of the project necessary for me from MSVC 7.0 to Delphi. After search of similar projects on the Internet and almost unsuccessful attempts to apply the given utilities, I have understood, that it is necessary try to realize the project of automatic translation from C ++ to Delphi. So the project “MSVC-2-Delphi-Translator” has appeared.

Front-end IDE

Make utility compatible with VC 7.0 (command line only, additional options are: optimizations of combining header files and code for compiler)

C/C++ Preprocessor compatible with VC 7.0 (command line only, additional options are: optimization based on choice: translations to functions calls or evolutions macros)

Phases of development:

The full time of first version project development at the current amount of developers - about 1 year
