Yes. In fact I remember writing that comment ;-)

What happens if you delete the definition in Class.h and replace it with 
a declaration instead? At the moment it looks like either the Class.h 
one gets inlined or the Class.java one gets called. Calling the 
Class.java one shouldn't be a problem from C++ even though it is 
private, assuming it works.
