Java to Dart or C# to Dart code converter

[Andrew Skalkin]

I'm thinking of porting some Java and C# code to Dart and looking for tools that would help me automate this task. Even basic things like converting "private" to "_" for class members would help, but ideally I'm looking for a more sophisticated tool. I'm sure I'm not the first one who had this idea, so I'm hoping that someone has done it already, otherwise I might take a stab at it.

Java2Dart:

https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/browse/branches/bleeding_edge/dart/editor/util/plugins/com.google.dart.java2dart/src/com/google/dart/java2dart/engine/MainEngine.java

it's used to produce "package:analyzer" so we are relying on it.

Looks like it's written in Java. I wonder if anyone's tried running java2dart on itself? ;-)

You will get Mozart Symphony #40
LOL
There's an old anecdote: student composer, unable to come up with any good idea, just takes a composition by his teacher, and records all notes backwards.
When he plays it to the teacher, the old man exclaims: but this is Mozart Symphony #40!
