<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=953510315-30012008>Dear

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=953510315-30012008>Is it currently
possible to use (or else how much work will it take to add) an omniidl option
such that</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=953510315-30012008>the idl compiler
does not have to actually include (and therefore depend on) other idl
files?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=953510315-30012008></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=953510315-30012008>If that can be done
the omniidl compiler</SPAN></FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=953510315-30012008> can run its backends and generate all kinds of
files</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=953510315-30012008>from a single idl
source and just generate include directives in the generated
files.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=953510315-30012008></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=953510315-30012008>It would greatly
simplify the use of omniidl in a larger build framework operating
on lots of idl files.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
