=============

A handy API for writing JNI signatures easily

Author: chrisjrn

This module aims to provide a more human-friendly API for
wiring up Java proxy methods in PyJnius.

You can use the signature function to produce JNI method
signautures for methods; passing PyJnius JavaClass classes
as return or argument types; provided here are annotations
representing Java's primitive and array times.

Methods can return just a standard primitive type:

>>> signature(jint, ())
'()I'

>>> s.signature(jvoid, [jint])
'(I)V'

Or you can use autoclass proxies to specify Java classes
for return types.

>>> from jnius import autoclass
>>> String = autoclass("java.lang.String")
>>> signature(String, ())
'()Ljava/lang/String;'
