There is no sense in doing it this way for two reasons:
1) There is XML file in the specs that contains library description (this
file is for machine consumption, unlike PDF).
2) [1] is already done, see the links below.

Besides, XML file contains more information than pre-rendered PDFs/DOCs.
As a side note, OCL people generated their stubs this way (see original
posts on OCL list).

Pregenerated code is available here:

(or http://eurosoft.od.ua/mono/index.htm
if the above doesn't work for some reason)
