ISearchQueryHelper::get_ConnectionString unexpected conversion type: 2

I want to use Windows Search from java. I checked out the master branch 1e690b80, built the project (unit tests crash JVM) and copied the jars args4j-2.0.8.jar, com4j-2.2-SNAPSHOT.jar,tlbimp-2.2-SNAPSHOT.jar to my lib/

Then I generated the java classes (there were some warnings):

java -jar ./lib/tlbimp-2.2-SNAPSHOT.jar -o ./src -p org.useindexer "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Lib\10.0.19041.0\um\x64\SearchAPI.tlb"

and created the Main class:

package org.useindexer;
public class Main {
    public static void main(final String[] args) {
        final ISearchManager searchManager = ClassFactory.createCSearchManager();
        final ISearchCatalogManager searchCatalogManager = searchManager.getCatalog("SystemIndex");
        final ISearchQueryHelper queryHelper = searchCatalogManager.getQueryHelper();
        final String connectionString = queryHelper.connectionString();
    }
}

Calling the getter connectionString() fails with:

Exception in thread "main" com4j.ComException: unexpected conversion type: 2 : .\invoke.cpp:470
    at com4j.Wrapper.invoke(Wrapper.java:187)
    at com.sun.proxy.$Proxy7.connectionString(Unknown Source)

    at com4j.ComThread.run0(ComThread.java:172)
    at com4j.ComThread.run(ComThread.java:153)

Here's the generated getter:

  @VTID(3)
  @ReturnValue(type=NativeType.Unicode)
  java.lang.String connectionString();

P.S. mvn package:
