A program which reads a source file in programming language A
and outputs a functional equivalent programm in programming
language B is generally called a 'compiler'.

So all literatur and information about compiler construction
is applicable. It's a broad topic.

Try comp.compilers. *.
Try comp.programmin g.

Search the newsgroups and web for these keywords:
"Compiler theory"
"translator computer language"
"parser"
"lexer"

Your biggest issue is converting constructs of one language
which are not in the other language. Other issues may also
pop up, such as converting from functional (like LISP) to
procedural (FORTRAN).

If you are writing your tool in C++ and need assistance,
then post the code here along with details about the
expected behavior and the actual behavior. Be sure to
read the FAQs below before posting.

I am working on a project for work where I need a specialized type converter to convert the value of a string which is edited in a grid back to the underlying object type from the cell. The value in the cell is displayed as a string from the ToString() method in the class. Anyway, I am trying to implement my converter, but I am having a little trouble understanding it fully and how exactly to implement some of the methods, especially...

I'm having some trouble with an RTF converter called Logictran R2Net when two users access my site simultaneously.

I tried several online converters. In many case they do the job, but sometimes give some mess. I think that all converters I know are old, were created for VS 2003 and do not understand new stuff from VS 2005. For instance this block containing Using was not converted by anyone: Public Shared Function GetSiteSettings() As SiteSettings Using connection As New...

Sorry for this but to settle an argument Is C++ a dot net language, I say that it isn't and it has interoprability with dot net through extensions and what not, plus it been around longer than dot net, it allows multiple inheritance where as c# and vb.net don't you inherit from one object and implement from other objects (is this right?) Where as my boss thinks it is a dot net language because he's seen something that says c++.net.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
