Hi Aleksey,

Nice idea - but unfortunately it's not how it works. Python bindings work via COM/XPCOM or via webservices. For COM/XPCOM no wrappers explicitly generated - you can invoke any COM/XPCOM objects same way, so it's not possible to add help this way. It could be possible for WS wrappers, but unfortunately I'm busy with another subproject.
Feel free to write a patch yourself - I can review and integrate.

When I query vbox classes from python help I do not get anything useful.

Example code:
from vboxapi import VirtualBoxManager
mgr = VirtualBoxManager(None, None)
vbox = mgr.vbox
help(vbox)

it returns nothing useful, except C++ class it is based on.

I would like to see:
1. class comments (can it be forwarded to python-bindings-maker via
Doxygen or somehow?)
2. list of class functions
3. list of class parameters

Is it possible to make python bindings generate the inline help ?

For now I use "SDKref.pdf" for this, but I think I would learn faster
using python's built-in help.
