[Opencxx-users] newbie question

[Russell B. <ru...@ba...>]

  I'm trying to figure out if opencxx is suitable for the following task:

  I want to utilize opencxx to translate existing C++ class definitions 
( plus an opencxx annotation such as "metaclass Serializable") to C++ 
code and then compile with g++ in the end.  In the process of 
translation I want to generate 'serialize' or 'marshall' methods on my 
"Serializable" classes.   Very similar to what you get in Java when you 
declare that a class implements serializable.
  Has anyone done this?   Does this sound like something that opencxx 
can do?  In particular, I must compile the transformed code with g++ as 
I'm part of a larger build process that I don't control.

  I get the impression that opencxx doesn't actually emit translated 
code that can then be compiled with g++.
Am I wrong about that?

  Thanks for any information or examples,
  Russell Balest
