[kplato] persistence ...

[Jochen Hanff]

hi to all,
i developed a class library which provides reflection and persistence
to c++ objects. it's quite easy to use: you just have to define
a class schema in xml within the c++ class definition. then a metacompiler
generates the rest for you.
you can get information about properties and methods. you can set/get
the value of a property and you can invoke methods in a generic way
just by knowing its name : obj->method_invoke("mname", param)
the objects are stored in xml format in a file, database whatever ... ,
you just have to implement an adapter to the protocol you want to use.
so far, file:// is implemented, mysql:// will follow soon.
i developed generic dialogs, too. you can pass an object to a dialog
and it shows you the properties which you can read and write, the methods,
which you can invoke, of the object and the object in xml format.

the code is not available yet, but in a few days i will copy it to the ftp server.
maybe the code is useful for you.

stay free
