    Unfortunately generator runs before the C# compiler and doesn't know about anything you add in Additions. You will need to use the EnumFields.xml file to create your enum. You will need to put valid-formed JNI information in it, but it doesn't need to point to actual classes/fields.

    Example:

    <mapping jni-class="blah/blah" clr-enum-type="Bluebird.Enum.SDCommonResult">
  <field jni-name="name" clr-name="Name" value="0" />
  <field jni-name="id" clr-name="Id" value="1" />
  <field jni-name="tag" clr-name="Tag" value="2" />
</mapping>

    Yes, that would work, but it would create a lot of false warnings like, so don't think I will go that way.

    warning BG8A00: <remove-node path="/api/package[@name='blah']/class[@name='blah']/field[@name='name']"/> matched no nodes.
warning BG8A00: <remove-node path="/api/package[@name='blah']/class[@name='blah']/field[@name='id']"/> matched no nodes.
warning BG8A00: <remove-node path="/api/package[@name='blah']/class[@name='blah']/field[@name='tag']"/> matched no nodes.

    Yeah, that's unfortunate.

    We need to either (or both):

    • Make the jni-class/jni-interface/jni-name fields in the enum xml optional
    • Allow user to mark a binding type as "generator doesn't know about this type, but please use it anyways"

    Moving to Java.Interop.
