Details

We've had some fairly serious bugs in JNI boilerplate caused by small typos, IIRC. A friendlier spec would also make it easier to extend the JNI with new calls. There are almost certainly existing tools that can do this, but TBH it would take about 30 minutes to write one by hand. It looks like the C++->Java side is more error prone, but generating the goop for both directions wouldn't be too bad. Marking (?) because I'm not sure how useful this would be. CC'ing some folks who I know have grubbed around in here in the past.
This is pretty much done I think.
