I'm thinking about developing a tool that generates code in different
languages based on a single data model.  For instance, given a data
model, I could specify how .h .c .c++ .pascal etc. files would be
generated.

I was told that gcc is organized in a similar fashion.  That the
front end and back end are defined separately.  Does gcc have a 
standardized way of specifying the back end?  Would it be possible
to apply gcc concepts to what I am trying to do ?
