Re: [aspectj-users] AspectJ 1.5.2 Compiler Error?

["Andy Clement" <andrew.clement@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Bug 143903 is currently open to cover some limitations between the
iajc and javac tasks.
However, moving a source folder to your classpath doesnt mean that
AspectJ will be able to resolve the types in it - it will be looking
for .class files on the classpath, not .java or .aj files.  If the
aspects depend on your local codebase, you will need a built version
of your local codebase in order to compile the aspects.  So, you can
either put the local codebase in sourceroots (like you are at the
moment) or compile it earlier/separately and put it on the classpath.

Andy.
