RE: [ajdt-dev] AJDT 1.2.0M2 released 
Pretty cool. AJDT is obviously making great strides toward becoming a fully
matured development tool.

I started working with Aspects a year ago when AJDT didn't support .aj files
(version 1.1.4). Unfortunately, it was the source of many problems, as not
everyone in the development team was involved with Aspects and had the
plugin installed. So I decided not to use AJDT, and work with AspectJ
directly. But then I felt like going back to the stone age. So I eventually
gave up on using Aspects, temporarily.

In the meantime, I started to depend more and more on the Java editor in
Eclipse so replacing it with an always trailing AJDT editor for Java files
didn't seem enticing. So congrats, you guys seem to have finally solved my
first problem concerning Aspects and Eclipse.

The second problem is that our product is multi-project and several hundred
thousand lines long: incremental compilation with Aspects enabled was way
too slow at the time. Is making incremental compilation faster a priority
for the next releases? How many more milestones to AJDT 1.2?

Thanks for the good work,

The AJDT team are delighted to announce the second milestone release of
AJDT 1.2.0. Highlights of this release are:
   - includes AspectJ 5 milestone 1
   - support for Eclipse 3.1M3 (as well as Eclipse 3.0)
   - new view to show crosscutting relationships
   - new advice image decorator
   - new advises markers
   - closer integration with JDT
   - lots of bug fixes

Please read the New and Noteworthy document for more details.

This is a milestone release, to reflect the fact that some of the new
functionality may be incomplete or unstable in places. We strongly
recommend upgrading to 1.2.0M2 if you are using 1.2.0M1, or any 1.2.0
development build. If you are using 1.1.12, we encourage you to try out
this release, possibly in a new workspace, and send us your feedback.

Supported versions of Eclipse for this release are: 3.0.1, and 3.1M3.
Tested platforms are Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X.

Please see the AJDT homepage for the New and Noteworthy, download
information, and the latest release notes:

    http://www.eclipse.org/ajdt

The build identifier is "1.2.0.20041214165937". It should appear in the
update list if you currently have 1.2.0M1 installed and search for updates
to installed features.

Regards,

Matt + the rest of the AJDT team.
