Beijing time June 12 Morning News, Microsoft introduced a new tool this week to help Android developers smooth transfer to the Windows Phone 7 platform. For a mobile operating system, obtaining the support of Third-party developers is a key factor in improving the quality of the platform. So Microsoft has taken various steps to attract developers to develop apps for Windows Phone 7.  Microsoft has previously launched tools to help developers of the iOS platform move to Windows Phone 7. Microsoft's basic idea is that if developers have good application ideas, they can easily develop applications for iOS, Android, and Windows Phone three platforms simultaneously. "It's important to be a developer with a wide range of platforms," says JC Chimitille of Windows phone developer blog. While switching from one platform or one language to another will break the habits of developers, this change will also bring opportunities.  "Microsoft's tools include Android to the Windows Phone application Interface (API) mapping tool, and a 90-page document called the Windows Phone 7 guide for Android application developers." This mapping tool is equivalent to a "translation dictionary" that helps users easily translate the instructions in the Android language into Windows Phone language directives. If developers encounter difficulties, they can also use Microsoft's Developer forum for help. Microsoft plans to integrate the latest Windows Phone 7 "Mango" system into this API mapping tool. (Nan)
