        As a followup to this, I am getting a bunch of generator.exe
        errors that look like this:

        ------
            Build started: Project: BindingLibrary, Configuration: Debug
            Any CPU ------

            

            C:\Program Files

            ========== Build: 0 succeeded or up-to-date, 2 failed, 0
            skipped ==========

          
    
    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

            I have created a class called operations in .java file in
            eclipse.  Everything compiles as intended in Eclipse.  I
            want to then import my jar file into a java binding project
            in MfA 4.2.  I have INTENTIONALLY created a property in java
            that will result in a conflict with an initializer in C#. 
            My question is how do I go about fixing this via the
            transform .xml files?

             

            In the EnumMethods.xml file, I have tried:

              <mapping
            jni-class="com/scalabledevelopment/math/Operations">

                <method jni-name="Operations" parameter="Operations"

                  clr-enum-type="FixedOperations" />

              </mapping>

             

            as will as:

              <mapping
            jni-class="com/scalabledevelopment/math/Operations">

                <method jni-name="Operations"

                  clr-enum-type="FixedOperations" />

              </mapping>

          
        
      
    
    

    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>...

    I'm not sure where you see the double closing.  

    
      
        
           

            Neither of the above options helps me.

             

            I have tried to go into Metadata.xml and use the following:

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

          
        
      
    
    

    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)

    https://github.com/moljac/HolisticWare_JavaBindingProjects

    

    AdMob is not done (yet)

    I'll take a look at your sampe project on github.  Unfortunately, the entry for changing a property name is not working  any better than mine.  hmmm, what to do.  ;-/

    
      
        
           

            Unfortunately, I have no luck there as well.

             

            My other option is to go into the source file at
            obj/Debug/generated/src/.cs file.  I can fix the error
            there, but won't the file be overwritten the next time I
            perform a compile?

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

    
      
        
           

            Ideas, thoughts, and whatever are appreciated.

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