translating C to Java language

Has any one looked at writing a semantic translator from a C language
description to a functionally equivalent Java language description?
The translation need not be entirely automatic, human interaction in
the conversion cycle for corner cases might be okay with a proper
environment assist.


Has anyone done a similar translator from C to another object
oriented language?


Is any tools company working on this?


Pointers to references or to earlier usenet threads on this topic
will be appreciated.
