Thinking it more carefully, a C++ parser is needed if you want to make the 
conversion even nearly automatic. The languages have different contructs.
There are C++ features which can't be (easily) converted, like pointer 
arithmetic and templates.
VCL UI code may not have the most advanced C++ features but some other units 
may have them.

I didn't find any C++ to object pascal (or Delphi) converters from internet by 
google search. If nobody has made it then it must be a difficult task.

Regards,
Juha
