Convert Delphi to C#

Conversion Samples of Delphi to C# WinForms

Ispirer Toolkit analyzes all object dependencies during the conversion process and provides not only line-by-line conversion, but resolves type conversions as well. The software understands and transforms the necessary inheritance dependencies. It parses the entire source code, builds an internal tree with all the information about the objects, and uses it in the migration process.

The code samples below provide you with more details.

• Variables declaration conversion:

  Delphi

   
  var 	CanClose: Boolean;
  		CustNo: Double;
  		DBPath: string;
  		Key: Char;
  		I: Integer;
  		RSCON: TIniFile;
   

  → C# WinForms

   
  bool CanClose;
  double CustNo;
  string Dbpath;
  char Key;
  int I;
  IniFile RSCON = null; //class IniFile implemented in AdditionalClasses
   

• .pas file structure conversion:

  Delphi

   
  unit Splash;
   
  interface
   
  uses
    SysUtils, Windows, Messages, Classes, Graphics, Controls,
    Forms, Dialogs, StdCtrls, ExtCtrls;
   
  type
    TSplashForm = class(TForm)
      Panel1: TPanel;
      Label3: TLabel;
      Bevel1: TBevel;
      Label1: TLabel;
      Image1: TImage;
    end;
   
  var
    SplashForm: TSplashForm;
   
  implementation
   
  {$R *.dfm}
   
  end.
