Re: [aspectj-users] weaving into Eclipse classes

Matthew,

I'd like to run the woven JDT plugin within an Eclipse 3.1 environment, running on Windows XP machine, if that's what you asked. Another plugin then would use this (woven) plugin in the runtime workbench.

Where can I get more information about binary weaving?

thanks,
Davi

Davi,

Another approach is to import the binary plug-in(s) you would like to weave into you workspace and use binary weaving. You can then use the woven versions in a runtime workbench. What is your target environment?

Re: [aspectj-users] weaving into Eclipse classes







Hi Davi,

So if I understand things correctly, you would like to weave
additional methods from your plugin into classes in the
org.eclipse.jdt.core project.

I know of a way that might work for you.  You could use the ajc
compiler (either via the command line or from one of the ajc ant
tasks) with the inpath, outjar, and classpath options.  However, I
have tried to weave into the org.eclipse.jdt.core project before, and
I received a code size too big error (see
http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/aspectj-users/msg06484.html for
more information).  So to get around that, you would need to do some
refactoring of that project - you would have to break up the classes
that produced the code size too big error.  Also if your methods make
use of some type that cannot be resolved based on the project's
manifest file, you may need to update that file.

Of course the easiest way to achieve your goal would be to check out
the org.eclipse.jdt.core project from the eclipse cvs repository, make
your additions by editing the code, build the project, and then deploy
the plugin.  But I suppose this might not work for you, depending on
what your methods are.

As far as I can understand, Mahler (in
http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/aspectj-users/msg06414.html )
wanted to weave advice into classes defined in his own plugin, which
seems like a different situation than yours.
