Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but Boost.Iostreams
constructs the interface of several classes via macros.

For instance, this (from boost/iostreams/stream.hpp) translates into
some dozen public member functions:

BOOST_IOSTREAMS_FORWARD( stream, open_impl, Device,
                             BOOST_IOSTREAMS_PUSH_PARAMS,
                             BOOST_IOSTREAMS_PUSH_ARGS )
