I am very proficient in c and c++. I have 16 years c++ developing experience now, and have worked for more than 6 years. My work is online game developing, and mainly focus on client side, using c++ under windows environment. I used c++ to make many great projects, for example, I made the tools which can convert java files into c++ scripts, of course garbage collection included, this job is very similiar to a compiler, and is very complex. I also made our own mobile game using c++, I can show you the demo of client, if you like. I am very proficient in java also. I have a very good review on Freelancer.com, I never miss a project once I accept the job, you can check my review. Trust me, please let expert help you.

Dear Sirs, I would like to discuss your project in more detail. I have made a "placeholder" bid, but we would need to look over the requirements before a price can be reached. Normally in a situation like this I would charge my standard rate of $50.00 per hour, and that may be the best way to handle this project. I have over 30 years of experience in the IT industry doing software development in a variety of environments. I maintain some software that is written in C++ and was originally developed in VS 2005. I had to port the project over to VS 2010. Over time I have made modifications to the C++ code and have added an external interface which gives me the ability to call methods in the C++ dll from managed .NET code. It involved writing a wrapper class that serves as the "go between". I have a good deal of experience picking up old programs and maintaining them. The actual conversion of the C++ project from 2005 to 2010 shouldn't be too painless. It may be more work getting all those external toolkits onboard and working correctly with the code. I will be happy to sign the NDA and will do everything I can to help you reach your project goals. Please let me know if you would like to discuss your project further. David Spore

I am an experienced developer in C, C++ 98, C++ 11 including the evolution of the STL. I started developing in C and C++ more than 10 years ago and worked all through the modifications to the language. Therefore I will be able to pinpoint the compilation problems quickly. I need to know how large is the project's source code. If very large my estimation may be inacurate both in price and completion time. Completion time is what worries me the most since I'm new to Freelancer and I want good reviews

I have experience of working with a clients source code and building the application (Embedded C) which involved modification due to missing components and inclusion of new libraries. I have full access to MSDN so will be able to gain access to resources provided. The process I would follow to complete this project would be : 1) Compile software on system with Visual Studio 2005, to ensure clean build is possible. 2) import project into a Visual Studio 2013 / 2015 Solution, if possible piece by piece (assuming project builds DLLs for it's own consumption for example) 3) Work through issues from compilation 4) Perform clean and build operations for whole solution to ensure all issues resolved and compare with original project result I assume ToolKits are all available and function under VS2013/2015 and that none of the functionality requires significant rework only that out of date / unsupported calls are reworked.

I can make the exact time schedule if I'd see the size/complexity of the solution. I guess, it is possible to finish it sooner than 10 days.

This is a place holder for the final bid. I am a developer with 30 years of experience, an I have worked with Visual Studio in the early 2000s. If you are interested, I can sigh the NDA, validate how much work is really needed to have the system compile and run with a current version of visual studio and update the bid accordingly.
