Type safety, C++ and code generation

Hi,

I have developed a simple code generator that helps me significantly raise the level of type safety in C++:

The whole idea was in some way inspired by Ada, so I hope to get some constructive criticism and comments from you - that's why I post it here. Please look at it from the perspective of Ada programmer.

(And taking into account the fact that some of you are also C++ programmers, you might actually find it interesting or even useful.)
