Of course. I'm glad for the result of ordered inclusion because I didn't
know if it was crazy or if it actually was a solution to the problem.

BTW, let me share another idea on IDL programming style. Something
like export control:

---- B.idl ----
// Export all interfaces defined in this file by forwarding at the
// beginning of the file, outside the #ifndef scope

interface B;

#ifndef B_idl
#define B_idl

// Now we can use inclusion again because we know we
// will only bring in forward declarations from the dependency
// file when that file was the originator for the inclusion.

#include <A.idl>

interface B {
	A opa();
};
#endif // B_idl
