I'm trying to create a Java Binding Library for BugSense, but one of the methods has a parameter named "params" which is a reserved word in C#. I've tried to use the Metadata.xml file to rename it, but I can't figure out how to access the class, let alone the method or it's parameter.
Here is the problem code it's generating:
namespace Com.Bugsense.Trace {
[global::Android.Runtime.Register ("com/bugsense/trace/ActivityAsyncTask", DoNotGenerateAcw=true)]
internal partial class ActivityAsyncTaskInvoker : ActivityAsyncTask {
static IntPtr id_doInBackground_arrayLjava_lang_Object_;
[Register ("doInBackground", "([Ljava/lang/Object;)Ljava/lang/Object;", "GetDoInBackground_arrayLjava_lang_Object_Handler")]
protected override global::Java.Lang.Object DoInBackground (global::Java.Lang.Object[] params)
{
if (id_doInBackground_arrayLjava_lang_Object_ == IntPtr.Zero)
id_doInBackground_arrayLjava_lang_Object_ = JNIEnv.GetMethodID (class_ref, "doInBackground", "([Ljava/lang/Object;)Ljava/lang/Object;");
IntPtr native_params = JNIEnv.NewArray (params);
global::Java.Lang.Object __ret = Java.Lang.Object.GetObject<global::Java.Lang.Object> (JNIEnv.CallObjectMethod (Handle, id_doInBackground_arrayLjava_lang_Object_, new JValue (native_params)), JniHandleOwnership.TransferLocalRef);
if (params != null) {
JNIEnv.CopyArray (native_params, params);
JNIEnv.DeleteLocalRef (native_params);
}
return __ret;
}
}
}
Here is my mapping, which I feel should work, but just refuses to.
<attr path="/api/package[@name='com.bugsense.trace']/class[@name='ActivityAsyncTaskInvoker']/method[@name='doInBackground']/parameter[@name='params']" name="managedName">@params</attr>
I've tried everything I can think of. Please, HELP!
So, turns out it's just a bug in the current version of Mono for Android. If you update to the 4.2.4 build, which is in beta, everything compiles fine.
