(TODO: merge into Oxidizer)

Portions of existing C# code can easily be converted into the equivalent Delphi Prism code by using the Paste C# as Oxygene menu item available in the context menu of the code editor.

This command will take C# code from the clipboard, convert it to the equivalent Delphi Prism code and paste the conversion result starting at the current caret position.

For example, the following code snippet

Thread lTestThread = new Thread(delegate()
{
    Int32 i = 0;
    while (i < 4)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Thread Step " + i.ToString());
        i++;
    }
});

lTestThread.Start();
Console.ReadLine();

will be converted into

var lTestThread: Thread := new Thread(method begin
  var i: Int32 := 0;
  while i < 4 do begin
    Console.WriteLine('Thread Step ' + i.ToString());
    {POST}inc(i)
  end
end);

lTestThread.Start();
Console.ReadLine()
