Just out of curiosity, what's your use case?
i create a class at compile time to ease interfacing a huge package, mostly to
spare the user tons of boilerplate code. not all sub-modules are interesting.
since they have to be (public) imported into the module that generates the
helping class, this could switch on - in a very transparent way for the user -
the generation of respective boilerplate code and exposing functionality.
obviously, i want to avoid a public import of the whole package - since only a
few sub-modules will be used. currently, i have 2 different places in my helper
module where functionality is switched on (for imports, and for code
generation) and i don't like it.
i will experiment with mixin templates now, but i find this approach ugly and
not transparent.
