17. Frequently Asked Questions

QuestionAnswer
Will every project convert perfectly on the first run?No. The converter is powerful, but real-world projects still expose new patterns that may need another global rule.
Should I hand-edit the generated FMX project permanently?Only for temporary testing or minor final polish. The real fix should go into the converter whenever the pattern is reusable.
Why do I still need Delphi after conversion?Because the generated project still has to be built, run, and validated in the real Delphi environment.
Why are backups important?Because converter improvements are cumulative, and known-good milestone states are valuable when comparing behavior or recovering from regressions.
When should I review visuals?After the project loads, compiles, and runs acceptably. Visual polish is usually the last phase.
What does blocking issues mean?It means the converter found a serious unsupported pattern or rule gap. Generated files may exist, but you should resolve the blocking issue before treating the output as a valid converted project.
