The problem is getting the method parameter names: Java .class files contain
type and member names but they don't contain parameter names, i.e. the .jar is
useless for parameter names.
Where do we get parameter names from? JavaDoc. Our .jar binding tool has
support to parse JavaDoc HTML to get decent parameter names. Unfortunately,
there doesn't appear to be a good way to specify this within the IDE, and there
is a great deal of variance in javadoc output, all of which we don't support.
Consequently, you'll need to do two things:
1. Download the JavaDoc for the library you're binding. (This may or may not be
possible.)
2. Edit the .csproj and add a <JavaDocPaths/> property:
<PropertyGroup>
<JavaDocPaths>Path\To\JavaDocs</JavaDocPaths>
</PropertyGroup>
3. Clean and rebuild the project.
Once this is done, assuming the HTML scraper does its job properly, the
generated api.xml should contain useful parameter names.
Thanks,
