Hi,
I might be totally off here, but can't I use an (older) fixed version
AspectJ with AJDT.
Just because a (shipped) product uses, say AspectJ 1.5.1a, shouldn't mean
that the development team can't upgrade to a more recent version of AJDT
(compare JDK/JRE and JDT).
I might want to to be able to have different AspectJ versions for different
products in Eclipse.
There doesn't seem to be an equivalent for Java Build Path -> Add Library ->
JRE System Library.
There is the ASPECTJRT_LIB, but that is not quite it or?

I believe Barry works in AJDT and then does Ant builds outside and it is
true that during the long development time of AspectJ5 we frequently
made changes to cause incompatibilities between the two. We haven't
recently made any changes like this - but I wont guarantee that it wont
happen, we need to think about how to make it available in the easiest
way possible.
It isn't quite the same as comparing JDK/JRE and the JDT, it's more like
comparing JDTCore and JDTUI. Eclipse don't provide a site where you go
and download the standalone compiler, it's in the eclipse build and it
matches exactly the version of JDTUI that exposes it through the eclipse
UI. If you want to do Ant builds after you've finished pure Java
development in Eclipse then you just use javac from your favourite VM
provider (you could use JDTCore in batch mode but I'm not sure how many
people do that at the moment). So you can see that because AspectJ does
provide a separate site where you can get the compiler then things get
out of step - we don't like releasing AJDT builds without ensuring the
AspectJ plugged into them passes all the tests - but those tests are
separate to the thousands we run just against the core compiler. If a
build passes the core compiler tests it is suitable for use on command
line or through Ant - so we make it available from our download page.
The problem is that a particular (stable) version of HEAD makes its way
into AJDT and we don't archive that in an accessible way for users who
want a pair of compiler/AJDT that match. Matts pointer to the
'repackaging of AspectJ' enhancement is a possible way to address this.
