I think that the path does support the interface as I started with

package org.navit_project;

public interface navit extends DBusInterface{
    public Path attr_iter();
}

That allowed me to get a handle on the object with:

navit n = (navit) dbusConnection.getRemoteObject(NavitBusName, NavitPath);

and call the method in the interface. When I change to using the wrong
Interface name and allow the annotation to correct:

package org.navit_project;

@DBusInterfaceName("org.navit_project.navit")
public interface nav extends DBusInterface{
    public Path attr_iter();
}

It's failing the cast at run time.

nav n = (nav) dbusConnection.getRemoteObject(NavitBusName, NavitPath);

I'm sure there's a way around this :-(
