Description noel.power 2007-03-20 11:34:18 UTC 
the helperapi module provides constants via a 2 step process
1) meta information is extracted from associated binaries and dlls
2) meta information is processed and idl definitions are autogenerated and
associated type libraries are provided from that.

the currently set of constants that is provided in the oovbaapi module is coded
by hand
   a) it possible contains error/typos
   b) it has a different namespaces

we should 
   a) remove the hardcoded constant idl files from oovbaapi and replace it with
them with the system already in place in the helperapi to provide autogenerated
idl files from meta data.
   b) the helperapi code ( the idl file generation step ) needs to be modified
to create constants in the namespace expected by the oovbaapi project
