Hi, The group I work with is also interested in Root & IDL. At this time, we are unaware of any mechanism to read Root data into IDL. We have developed a specific Root reader (an IDL Dynamic Link Module (DLM)) for some of our Root files. Converting the data stored in the Root file into an IDL structure. Our intention is to develop this interface to be generic enough to handle any Root file. If you would like more details about what we have done so far, as well as contributing or providing input for further development, please do not hesitate to contact me.
