MSCOM Java Binding - Breakage

[Max D]

MSCOM Java bindings are currently unusable as they fail on any method not returning a String.

Test code

public class MsComTest {
   
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      VirtualBoxManager mgr = VirtualBoxManager.createInstance(null);
      try {
         mgr.getVBox().getRevision();
      } finally {
         mgr.cleanup();
      }
   }
   
}

[Klaus Espenlaub]

Not quite every call, but every call which returns unsigned data. JACOB expects that in this case one asks it to return signed data and do the adjustment (including the use of a bigger data type) to convert it back to unsigned.
