Kick Start Your Modernization Process, Today!

Modernizing your Delphi legacy systems doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With The Delphi Parser Migration Tools, you can analyze, plan, and execute migrations automatically—without massive budgets or endless delays.

Download the free Delphi Parser Migration Wizard (Assessment Edition), run it on your own codebase, and see the modernization process in action. Review what changes are needed, watch the transformation on your own projects, and start your journey to Delphi 13.

Step 1: Assess Your Legacy Code

Twenty years of Delphi code can mean millions of lines spread across hundreds of files, projects, and folders. The first step is gaining clarity.

  • Automatic Code Analysis – Scan your entire project with the Delphi Parser Analyzer.

  • Dependency Mapping – Get a clear view of components, objects, and cross-references.

  • Black Hole Detection – Identify unmanaged, outdated, or “untouchable” code sections.

  • Insightful Reports – Understand what’s truly required for modernization and what can be retired.

Step 2: Define Your Modernization Goals

Every project is unique. Before starting, set your modernization roadmap:

  • Upgrade targets: Define your Delphi upgrade goals (to Delphi 13 / RAD Studio 13).

  • Technology mapping: List current components and data access layers.

  • Replacements: Choose modern equivalents for obsolete technologies.

  • Wish list: Add new requirements (Unicode, multi-platform support, cloud integration, mobile apps, APIs).

Step 3: Design Your Migration Solution

The Delphi Parser Migration Tools automate common modernization tasks:

  • Database Migration – e.g., Paradox → SQL Server, BDE → FireDAC, non-Unicode → Unicode.

  • Component Replacement – Swap outdated VCL, 3rd-party, or proprietary components with modern frameworks (e.g., UniGUI, DevExpress, InfoPower).

  • Code Refactoring – Move hard-coded SQL into stored procedures or REST/JSON middleware.

Each replacement can be customized with rule-based scripts so the parser adapts perfectly to your project.

Step 4: Build Your Modernization Team

Your modernization “team” is actually you + the robots.

  • No need for costly outside experts.

  • The Delphi Parser Wizard is script-driven, powerful, and easy to use.

  • For complex migrations, the Delphi Parser Expert Edition provides full developer kit flexibility.

  • Or choose a Total Modernization Service, where our team customizes the wizard for your requirements.

Step 5: Run, Test & Integrate – Agile Style

Modernization doesn’t have to be waterfall-driven. Delphi Parser works in fast, repeatable cycles:

  • Quick runs – Even the largest projects (millions of LoC) process in hours.

  • Fresh code daily – Run the parser overnight, test results in the morning.

  • 99%+ automation – Most work is handled automatically, leaving only minimal manual adjustments.

  • Agile flexibility – If results aren’t perfect, refine the rules and rerun—no branching, no merging.

Each cycle produces cleaner, modernized code based on your latest source, so ongoing development continues uninterrupted.

Step 6: Deploy & Celebrate

Once the parser delivers stable, compiled applications in Delphi 13, you’re ready for QA, product testing, and release.

  • Code has already been tested and refined across multiple cycles.

  • No messy merges or lost updates—just clean, modernized code.

  • Your development team can now continue on the modern Delphi platform with confidence.

And then—celebrate. 🎉
You’ve successfully migrated your legacy Delphi systems into the future.

Final Word

Legacy modernization isn’t a dream anymore—it’s a practical, automated, and achievable reality.

With the Delphi Parser Migration Tools you can:

  • Analyze legacy codebases

  • Replace obsolete technologies

  • Migrate databases and components

  • Modernize UI/UX and architecture

  • Do it all faster, cheaper, and safer

Kick-start your modernization today—and take your Delphi systems from the 1990s into 2026 and beyond.
