Source Code conversion as part of a Build Process

If you're like me, you want a particular piece of code in your particular language. For example, a lot of people want the Club Starter Kit 2.0, 3.0 in C# since it has been written in VB. Me being the lazy open source developer that doesn't get paid :), I keep delaying the CSK conversion to C# because of my personal stuff. Then I was thinking, what if it were a part of the build process? Then I wouldn't have to go through the arbitrary process of converting a whole application to another language for a release that I will most likely be changing.

 

Before I go ahead and implement this myself, I was wondering if anyone out in the community has done this sort of thing before? I'm sure it wouldn't be that hard, what with the CruiseControl.NET API being what it is. I have already scoped out some ideas of how to implement. But I was wondering if anyone has ever built this plugin.

 

PLEASE leave a comment on the blog or email me (zowens2009 at gmail dot com)

 

THANKS COMMUNITY! I will make you proud if this isn't out there ;)
