Porting Visual Basic to REALbasic
REAL Software has published a guide for porting Visual Basic applications
to Linux and Mac OS X using REALbasic, which is compatible with all
three platforms. “Visual Basic and REALbasic are very similar, so
Visual Basic users quickly become familiar with REALbasic,” said Geoff
Perlman, president and CEO of
REAL Software, in a statement. “Once familiar, these developers get a
big payoff, because we provide both the information and tools they need
to extend their capabilities and their software products,
cross-platform.” A VB Project Converter application has also been released free of charge. [The Macintosh News Network]
