Hello,

We have C# to [Vb.Net](http://Vb.Net) and [Vb.Net](http://Vb.Net) to C# converter at the moment.

This make our life as a programmer more easy.

Just wondering, if any one is working or thinking to implement a  
Converter that deals with C# to IronRuby and vice versa

Thanks

A Ruby version is probably _possible_…

Hi,

They have discontinued the Product and the development, so now there is  
no such tool available as such.

Lets see, when we get such thing for IronRuby now.

C# to IronRuby converter is a must in a near future, and this project  
should be taken seriously.

When would you want to use such a converter? I mean what are use cases?

There are plenty of Starter Kits available in [Vb.Net](http://Vb.Net) and C#. While  
IronRuby is still emerging.

Now there will be lots of migration from [Asp.Net](http://Asp.Net) web forms to [Asp.Net](http://Asp.Net)  
MVC as well. Rather than converting code from C# to IronRuby, it would  
be better to have a converter like this to make the progress more  
faster.

A Converter like this can be used at many places, this is just one  
example.
