webidl, jsinterop and overloaded methods

Hi

I am toying around with generating Java interfaces annotated with @JsType and @JsProperty from webidl. But I have a problem with overloaded methods.

For example: The idl for CanvasRenderingContext2 has several overloaded methods

fx

  void stroke();
  void stroke(Path2D path);

and

  ImageData createImageData(double sw, double sh);
  ImageData createImageData(ImageData imagedata);

I can generate a corresponding Java interface with the overloaded methods, but the GWT compiler fails with this

Error:(75, 0) GWT Compiler: JsType methods cannot overload another method.

I know JS does not support function overloading as such, but on the other hand, you can pass anything to a js function regardless of the specified parameters.

Do you have any ideas for how I can resolve these issues?
