Dear All,

I have an application tool which is made in VC6 (Visual studio 6). It is a VC++ MFC application.
Now my client wants most of the features from this tool as WCF service which he can consume in his java web based application.
I want to know what may be the best way I can achieve this.
Shall I develop new application tool in .net as WCF or I can port my application in to .net and then convert it in to WCF service?
Please suggest better way to achieve my requirement.

Thanks in advance,
Nilesh

Actually, the way it should go is that you should create a wcf service, and then port your code to .net while at the same time adding it to the service.

Since you're going from C++/MFC, the process is going to probably be completely manual, meaning there's no automatic conversion utility available.
