Retrieving parameter names from method in an interface [message #432204]

Hello

I was wondering, if I add an interface to an existing class an say to
implement the unimplemented methods, the IDE adds all methods with their
parameter names as defined in the interface.
How are the parameter names retrieved? Even if the interface is compiled
with debug information the class file does not contain any information
on the parameter names. The same is true for abstract methods.
Can anyone tell me how JDT does this or at least point me in the right
direction (for example class fragment that implements this refactoring
feature).

cheers

Andy

see: org.eclipse.jdt.core.IMethod.getParameterNames()
