Description

VB2Delphi Migration Kit is a Visual Basic 6 to Delphi source code migration tool. The current version supports .BAS, .CLS, .FRM and .VBP files.

What's New in v0.5

• Lots of bug fixes.
• Support for conditional translation based on #Const, #If..#Then. This means that #If..#Then IS NOT converted to {$IFDEF}..{$ENDIF}. What is translated is the resulting selected block. For now, the only implicitly defined compiler constant is WIN32.
• Support for .VBP, and .FRM files. The DFM is not generated yet.
• First implementation of conversion maps. Now you can specify how to translate the members of VB libraries to Delphi equivalents. See documentation in help/maps.htm.
• Included a new tool called GenVB2D that generates the basis for conversion maps. It simply takes a type library file and generates an skeleton conversion map. See command line switches.
• Implemented some command line switches for VB2Delphi.

The following features are not currently converted:

• On Error, Lock, Unlock, Resume, Return, Time, ForEach
• Form control descriptions(.DFM)
• Implements

What's Coming!

• Generation of DFM files.
• Mapping template syntax for event handlers.

VB2Delphi Migration Kit is a work in progress. This version should be considered a Tecnology Preview or Alpha.
