I don't understand the question
my idea was to generate a separate file for each class containing meta=20
informations and the file/meta informations would be regenerated whenever=
 the=20
interface is changed. in this case 'make' would do the job.
Am I missing something ? I think I am :(

I am afraid to ask: what is RDF ? is it the file format (called RDF also)=
=20
derived from xml that is used for example by news site ? or is it somethi=
ng =20
altogether different ?

I was planning to write a parser/generator in flex/bison that would extra=
ct=20
the meta informations with the help of one or two macros.
