Your library may be excellent but unless you allow everyone to see if it is so or not, it is not a viable alternative for all end-users. For the *nix world the library and tools should be buildable with the attached autotools. For windows I will upload a VC71 solutions file to the web page. I look forward to seeing this for Windows.

This should build a Reflex.dll. Sorry for the delay but I first had to find a way how to export the symbols (this is done with our build tools by default). The solution now is to export every symbol. This is too much and I probably should do something similar like boost choosing the proper set of symbols with the decl_export/import for windows.
To produce dictionary sources you will need to do
python python/genreflex/genreflex.py MyHeader.h --gccxmlpath=c:/my/ path/to/gccxml/bin
and then compile the resulting MyHeader_rflx.cpp into a shareable library and dynamically load it into your application (no symbols need to be exported).
If you discover problems please let me know.
Thanks, I have it and will be looking at it. I also encourage you to put the information about this on your web site for other VC++ developers to use also in order to try Reflex on Windows. I am very much interested in a C++ run-time reflection system and, after I have worked with Reflex will gladly communicate my ideas.
