Hi,

As I tried to use the org.eclipse.ajdt.pde.build plugin to build my
product headless, i got following error:

[exec] BUILD FAILED
[exec]

I use Eclipse 3.4.1, AJDT 1.6.4, and the trunk of the
org.eclipse.ajdt.pde.build plugin. Any idea?


As I require only load-time weaving (so the out-of-date problem not
applies to me, and no specific ajc arguments need to be used),
I found another solution, which nearly works perfect and not uses the
ajdt.pde.build plugin:
I use the build.compiler variable to tell the "normal" pde build to use
the aspectj compiler:


<exec executable="eclipsec.exe" failonerror="true">
...
<arg
value=" -Dbuild.compiler=org.aspectj.tools.ant.taskdefs.Ajc11Compile rAdapter "
/>
</exec>

However this not suffices since then, some aspect compiler classes are
not found.
As the description for Ajc11CompilerAdapter explains, one could add
aspectjtools.jar to the ant/lib directory.
But since this jar is no longer delivered in newer ajdt releases, I
added the jars
aspectjrt.jar, aspectjweaver.jar and ajde.jar ( and referenced them from
the manifest of Elcipe's ant plugin), which also do the job.
By the way, using the aspectjtools.jar offered by Sun not works since I
guess its a newer version and I didnt know which version AJDT took.

Next, I discovered that my *.aj files are not compiled. However I
renamed them to *.java, and they got compiled as aspects!
However aspects with the .java extension are not supported in the
Eclipse IDE for editing, so any idea on this?
Or any idea on how to make the pde builder recognise .aj files as source
files to compile?

I would also like not to modify Eclipe's ANT plugin, so any idea on how
I can add all the ajdt plugins on the class path to the eclipse compiler?

Thanks in advance,
Jörg


PS is there a mailing list for adjt-users? on the ajdt website, only a
mailing list for developers is linked.
