that's the same approach.
code seems to be written by an external code generator instead of a c++ 
compiler, but there is no difference beyond that, is there?
.NET for example implements serialization based on its reflection mechanism. 
it iterates at runtime through the (reflected) fields of a class and extracts 
the data.
I don't think an external code generator is "cleaner".
