something like:
It seems that xml breaks generator.exe.
I have filed bug report when there is whietspace in element content:
  <attr
path="/api/package[@name='org.achartengine.tools']/class[@name='Pan']/method[@name='addPanListener']"
     name="propertyName"
   >
   Panned
</attr>


And now about Your errors - inline

It seems it is xml again -  from what I can see (blurred) w/o coffee 
this early in the morning.
You're closing <mapping> twice: with /> and </mapping>...

And here I think it is not property, but method!
Props are methods....

try:

<attr 
path="/api/package[@name='com.scalabledevelopment.math']/class[@name='Operations']/method[@name='Operations']" 
name="managedName" >NumOperations</attr>

see my sample above.... (achartengine wrapped)
real world (acharengine + admob)

AdMob is not done (yet)

it will - so no use. Don't do it.

try commenting/uncommenting metadata.xml in my project. It helped me a 
lot...
