For my own use case I would see a lot of value in quick conversions of VFP function libraries that don't necessarily interact with data, of which I have a lot.
It would be interesting to see how a C# decompiler would cope with the XSharp generated bytecode. JetBrains has a free one (IIRC).
Well ILSpy is also free and even have a X# Language plugin, it can convert c# code even to X#. Same with taking X# assemblies and "translate" to c#.
If XSharp was around 10 years ago I would have seriously considered it. We transitioned from XBase++ to C# Winforms (1000+ installs, still a few stubborn ones!) and have started a project to move to ASP.NET Core (and merging several apps acquired over the years).
Well X# has language syntax support for XBase++, so maybe those stubborn ones can be ported to X# and get compiled without (m)any changes....
