Hi,
thanks for the responses. I think I will go for the second option
proposed by Doru but first I would like to check this Rossetta stuff
which supports VA to squeak export.
The only think that make me scheptical is that the VA Smalltalk have
concepts that are not in squeak. i.e. in VA you can have private
methods and there is this concept of application. So I don't know if
the RB AST is expressive enough and, most of all, if the importer will
actually import this kind of info.
Let you know how it goes.
Cheers,
Fabrizio

I just want to understand if I can save time or I should build a whole
parser and importer from scratch.
I've done similar work (except from VSE Smalltalk). My path was to use port
the code to moose first, then work with it in the image. The tool I use
doesn't appear to be readily available anymore, but there are other options,
such as:
http://rosettast.sourceforge.net/
(this that might support VisualAge to Moose already)
https://github.com/CampSmalltalk/Cypress
(those doesn't appear to currently support VisualAge to Moose, but has been
active recently)
I have not used either of these, though.
Enjoy,
Chris
