Does anybody know any attempt to create subj. in D. Keywords: IDispatch, PropertyBag, TypeLib and co. but without COM. In pure D. It is sort of meta info editing/inspection for controls on the form. Such framework could be used in IDE for interactive form editing. Other use case wich is interesting for me personally is instantiation of controls from HTML like here: http://www.terrainformatica.com/screenshots/smileui.png by using constructions like: <input type=tree showlines=true ... /> Any links or thoughts/ideas will be appreciated. I just don't want to invent one more wheel :) Andrew.

XForms could be implemented on top of framework I am trying to build. The framework internally uses capture/bubble event propagation schema used in (D)HTML. HTML alike engine allows to define layout and do styling using internal (resource based) and external HTML files. The reasons of my post was simple: I would like to implement or reuse existing sort of IDispatch solution. It would be nice if controls could be instantiated through HTML (I have cheap aproach for that) I am thinking about semi-universal solution which will allow e.g. to make such controls also be scriptable. Probably D should have some generic library with Variant or Boxing, IScriptable or so to implement various constructions like late object binding, soft marshalling, SOAP, etc. Andrew.
