this is *exactly* what the 'data abstraction layer' of the "Lit Window 
Library" does.

It stores a map<string, property> for aggregates and exposes the member 
information of the aggregate via aggregate::iterator, begin() and end() 
among other features.

Please have a look at

http://www.litwindow.com/library (homepage)

and download the lwbase package from SF and browse the documentation.

A quick introductory article is located at

http://www.litwindow.com/Library/Articles/dataabstractionlayer.htm

it is the first part of a series. The others will follow soon.
