Serialization and code emitting
And finally, in the "I follow Julien's tracks", a really nice MSDN article about how the XBOX live team reads and writes data with their C++ clietn using both reflection and code emit. I used a very similar approach with CoAD, but i was using templated compile time code generators. I might adopt this technique with the development of CoAD v3, as the template is starting to be very messy (mainly because of the bad habit of C++ devs to include refs in some fields based on the value of another, etc).
I will post some code about that in the future. Don't have the time now though!
