Is it just me?

I have been programming with Java for a few years now and I
am a SCJP, but I find this QT Java API rather confusing. It just
doesn't seem very Java like to me.

Things that I would expect to be rather simple and intuitive
just aren't. Granted, I just started working with this, but I've
been fighting the API all the way.

insertMedia()
I'm still trying to figure this one out.

10 argument methods
Surely, there has got to be a better way. Is this OOP?

Weak documentation
About the only thing I can find is some JavaDoc and
the examples in the SDK. AFAIK, there is only one
book on the subject and that is almost 3 years old.

Constants
Shouldn't these be capitalized?

Intellisense
For some reason (reflection API?), I'm not getting much
info from the intellisense in my IDE regarding the QTJ methods.
Normally, I would get a get some labels that describe the arguments,
but with this API, I just get something like (int p1, int p2, int p3, int p4, int p5).

Sorry, but I had to get this off my chest.

I'm sure that QTJ is a powerful API and all, but trying to get a grasp
of it from a purely Java perspective seems a bit daunting.

Regards,

Drew
