Streamer and ShowMembers mandatory

Hi everybody,

I have a question : is it absolutely necessary to generate or define a
Streamer method for every class one wants to convert to ROOT ?
I have a library of classes doing mainly I/O and would like to use the
documentation capabilities of ROOT. This library is not intended to have
a Streamer method. And as it uses STL and overrides << and >> operators,
rootcint gives me a bunch of problems generating the Streamer methods.
Since I don't need these methods (well, for the moment), I would like to
be able to just insert ClassDef, ClassImp and put -! options in the
LinkDef file. And then be able to generate html doc. For the time being,
I'm forced to make an implementation (even an empty one) of Streamer().
Any ideas ?

One other point : When I do gHtml->MakeAll() I have a bunch of errors
saying that there are corrupted files. But the files seem to be there,
alive and kicking and avaerything is well generated. It is strange.

Cheers

Damir
