Reading source files

I'm working on a project using the Netbeans Platform as a bottom-up solution, not as part of an IDE. (Whether or not I'll revisit that later, I'll see.) I have a table of methods listed in text files that I want to correlate with the real Java source files to find return types and parameters and such. I'm wading through all the available APIs, but I'm getting lost on where the entry point to a solution like this would be.



My feeling is that I'd be using the JavaSource API, but I'm lost as to how I would actually apply these classes, or even which ones would give me what I'm looking for.



Anyone have any pointers that can help me get on my way?
