Dropbox android sdk documentation

Question

I have been doing some research, and for the life of me, I cannot find any documentation on how to use the android dropbox SDK. I have authenticated the user, but now I cannot figure out how the get the metadata (file entries) of a folder. I have looked at the Web docs, but the arguments in java are turned around, flipped over, and then some.

In objective-c, the methods are straight forward, and I understand what is going on. Must I port the code from objective-c to java?

As far as I can tell as of Sep 20, 2011, Dropbox still hasn't put the Android SDK documentation. Here are some workarounds:

• This guy created his own version based on the official Dropbox SDK. https://github.com/mlamina/DropboxSDK-for-Android
• This forum post gives some tips. In particular, they suggest looking at the Python documentation. http://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=25318

[EDIT by anotheranon user] My friend stumbled upon this official documentation from Dropbox. Don't even know how he found it. Since this thread is also where I gave up I would like to share!
