So I wanted to try AspectJ with some down time on the project. Seems that
aspect turns off your save/auto-compile features. This is OK but when I
went to a regular Java project I could not turn it back on. Also
selecting Build Project from the tool bar. Nothing is compiled. Am
getting extremely frustrated with this. Seems that there is no solution
offered in any of the docs I refranced. If someone can help me with this
I will be most appreashiative. Without Eclipse I am stuck using
VisualSlickEdit(v6) which is a very good text editor, but not as nice as
our favorate tool.

I have tried reinstalling eclipse to no effect. Was wondering if some
config file is stored somewhere outside the main DIR. What makes me think
of this? When I deinstalled/reinstalled eclipse it had an error that it
could not find the aspectj.jar. I was hoping that this would not be an
issue with a reinstall but it was.
Thanking you in advance,

Nothing. The status bar shows up for about 1/4 second and then
disappears. The project has over 1000 java files so that you know this is
impossible. Seems that it cannot find by build tool (eclipse default) or
my javac.

Seems that since I had made an AspectJ project, then turned that dir into
a regular java project, the IDE was using the old .classpath and .project
files to configure. It was defaulting to use the AspectJ compiler that no
longer exists as I removed it from the System. Suppose on the hole this
was, although hardley intuative, not persay a 'bug'. Sure would be nice
to get an error message though. . .'Unable to locate compiler'? Perhaps
on load askiong if the user wants to use the default config or create a
new one.
