Where do I configure which jars AJDT uses inside eclipse? [message #1065553]

Hi, I have my aspectjtools.jar in a custom location but when I want to delete it, it says "The action can't be completed because the file is open in Java(TM) Platform SE binary.
When I close Eclipse, I can delete it. But I don't remember ever configuring Eclipse to use this aspectjtools.jar. In fact, I don't think I'm using it at all?
Who is using that file / where do I configure which jars AJDT uses inside eclipse?

It's likely that you are using the aspectjtools.jar in one of your projects' classpath. As long as the project is open in Eclipse and it is on the classpath, windows will lock the file. So, if you want to delete the jar, then you must do one of 3 things:

1. shut down eclipse
2. close the project(s)
3. change the project(s) classpath to remove the jar

Aspectjtools.jar is not on any classpath, and besides, I can delete aspectjrt.jar just fine and that one IS on a project classpath. It must be some kind of setting in eclipse that is causing this.
