I'm not a Java expert but that shouldn't be possible. As far as I know Java, the reflection API only works on compiled Java code. Contrary to Python, Java byte code doesn't contain any doc strings. In order to get the doc strings, you would have to pull the doc strings from the java source code files. I suggest another approach. You could use javadoc to dump the doc strings as XML. Then you can parse the file during JCC run and add the doc strings from the XML file. I recommend that you make doc strings generation optional and disabled by default. Doc strings may increase the size of a JCC module A LOT. In the mean time you could just include the method signature(s) in the doc strings. JCC already has all information of a method or class constructor. Christian
