try JLCA (Java Language Convertion Assistant), free from MS it will convert Java code to C#, using only .NET standard libraries (no extra MS libraries) won't convert yet all stuff (sometimes there's no direct equivalent from a Java feature to .NET), but it's latest version even converts RMI stuff I've heard then use that C# source code and compile either with MS C# compiler or with mono's if you use .NET on Windows, play with the J# compiler instead (that one needs some extra libraries to be installed, but future .NET runtime versions will include the J# libraries too). I'm not sure if J# runtime libraries would work if copied to mono, I even dought it's legal too, but for your own home projects you could try doing it ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ George Birbilis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [Microsoft MVP J#] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + QuickTime VCL and ActiveX controls (for PowerPoint/VB/Delphi etc.) + Plugs VCL and ActiveX controls (InterProcess/Internet communication) + TransFormations, VB6 forms to ASP.net WebForms convertion http://www.kagi.com/birbilis + Robotics http://www.mech.upatras.gr/~robgroup ........................................................................ _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
