Delphi to C# - Any decent tool to do some hard core conversion?

Question

I've tried a couple of options available out there, such as Netcoole's Delphi2CS and TurnSharp. Both of 'em are for very simple code, if you have components it will generate tons of errors. My project is large, about 1GB counting all the vcl, source and repository. Is there such a tool to do this kind of heavy converting? Thanks.

Answer 1

I am afraid there isn't any reliable automated tool to achieve such thing. The differences between Delphi and .NET are huge. I did similar conversion at 2002 and I did it manually, by rewriting the whole project from scratch and it was hardcore stuff. Obviously if you think that porting it to .NET would be too much of a work you could always reuse functionality by exposing it as COM objects.
