Aspects across (Eclipse) projects [message #51916]

Is it possible - perhaps using INPATH - to get an aspect in one project to
weave classes in another. I'm sure it must be.

I have:
- project1 - holds a library I want to test
- project2 - holds POJO fixtures
- project3 - holds aspects that need to weave the POJOs in #2 to use
library in #1
- project4 - holds the tests

However, the aspects in #3 are not doing any weaving, or so it seems.

---
As a follow-on, these projects are actually plug-ins. I suspect I'll have
further problems here - any hints?

Many thanks
Dan

Yes, it is possible. Project 3 can set an inpath setting for the output
directory of project 2. The woven class files should then end up in the
output directory of project 3. You can use the show weave messages option
(under AspectJ Compiler properties > Other) to see what's happening.

Shouldn't be a problem. AJDT itself is a bunch of AspectJ plug-ins. Your
AspectJ-enabled plug-ins should have a dependency on
the org.aspectj.runtime plugin.
