Hey, I tried 4 hours to use the Java-Extension of Expand,
but it does not work as written in the documentation.
I use the latest Itemis-Distro of eclipse:

I can map a Java Funktion to an Expand-Funktion as long as I do not use any parameters. Then it works... if I use any parameters I cannot match the funktion anymore... I tried everything:

1.)
String createData(Data data): JAVA generator.xml.XmlHelper.createXmlData(Data data);

-->Does not find Data in the Mapping on the right side

2.)
String createData(Data data): JAVA generator.xml.XmlHelper.createXmlData(data);

-->Does not find data in the Mapping on the right side, same effect

3.)
String createXmlData(fullpackage.Data data):
JAVA fullpackage.Data.createXmlData(fullpackage.Data data);

-->I get an error while calling the method in an template File

Is this a bug, or did I something wrong?
Thank you!

something like this should work:

String myJavaExtension(String s):
JAVA org.your.package.getYourExtension(
java.lang.String);

this calls a method using a java.lang.String as Parameter and also a
String as Return value
