Hi I''m a new programmer and not familiar with Ruby on Rails. My first project is to convert a software written in RoR into a .net framework. Is it possible to convert/migrate the software into Visual Studio like Visual Basic? Please help. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Please help.Extremely doubtful. There may be some small parts that can be reused, with some tweaking, like bits of HTML, CSS and possibly some JavaScript. Other than that you''re probably looking at a complete rewrite. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

That''s what I thought. I know it''ll be a challenge specially to a young programmer like me. Any suggestion on how will it work on IronRuby? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Most of the Google results were circa 2008-2009 This Wiki post last mentions an incomplete Rails implementation in 2008 and nothing else http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IronRuby Good luck Greg Akins http://twitter.com/akinsgre -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
