what about "mscfront" a c++.NET to c++/cli conversion tool?

[Sebastian Dau]

Hello NG,

I' heavily searching for a tool to convert my c++.net apps to c++/cli syntax
(semi)automatic.
I found some indication from a memeber of the VC++ dev team about a tool
called mscfront.

Does anybody know something about this?

Thanks, Sebastian

Unfortunately there appears to be no such tool, per

<quote>
AFAIK, currently there is no such code translation tool to convert VC7
managed C++ code to the VC2005 C++/CLI code.
Thanks!

This was from a couple of months ago, so hopefully somebody will have more
current information.

I got this article as a hit, searching MSDN for "mscfront", as well.
