That's a very, very old tool and it does not convert the code, only the project so that you can work with Visual tools to build Symbian applications. You will have to do this manually by reprogramming the application design/functionality to WinCE. There's no way around it.

Of course you could work other way and build the app on WinCE/Windows mobile and run that application on a Symbian phone using the runtime you were referred to in the Forum Nokia.

You mean, you have a Symbian program, written in C++, and you want it ported to WinCE automatically, by using a converter?

Such a converter does not exist. It's not the problem that nobody has written something like that yet, it's that nobody knows how to write something like that. I would say such a converter requires true AI which obviously does not exist.

One probably could a Symbian *emulator* that runs on WinCE, but that also does not exist.
