Hi BCS,
I'd really appreciate it. I'm looking to port over a network server
application so the GUI stuff shouldn't be a problem. I've also kept my
source code on C# 1.0 so hopefully that should make it easier.
Did you write your own parser or base it on ANTLR or some other
parsing/compiling library?
I wonder if it is possible to fully automate the conversion process- if
you limit yourself to a certain subset of C# and maybe do some tricks to
decorate the C# source code with any additional D keywords you would
need, e.g. in C#
public class Foo {
public /* @shared */ int bar;
}
which could get translated as a shared variable.
I might want to continue to primarily write code in C# but create an
optimized port to D where I would be able to use native techniques on
critical areas of the code.
Note there is a D compiler for .NET, which may allow you to avoid porting
parts of it. I've never used it, but it has been announced here somewhere.
