Yes, I tried this and it works. The only problem with it is that the 
composite feature should be "propagated" feature. At least when I 
defined it as "free composite" it wasn't expanded at all. So as soon as 
it is propagated an additional build directory "proxystub_yes" is 
generated for proxy dll. As result midl.exe is called twice - to 
generate .c in the main project directory and in proxy dll directory. 
Doing the same job twice is not a good idea I would say.
