Hi all,

I am using Aspectj version 1.5.0 in my project.
The problem is that AspectJ build process takes a very long time (20-30
seconds approx.).
This time period is almost a constant for this project.

The project size is of about 900-1000 classes.
Is that reasonale time period for the AspectJ Builder?

Are you in eclipse using AJDT or on the command line using ajc or Ant ?
AspectJ1.5.0 was quite memory hungry - 1.5.2 has since improved things
and the imminent dev builds are going to improve it even further. What
Xmx value are you using? it may be thrashing in garbage collection if it
is too low?

Is it still pure Java code (ie. have you added any aspects yet) - if you
have not, how long does javac take to build it?

Andy.

Hi Andy,

Yes, I am using Eclipse.
Is AspectJ 1.5.2 the latest released version?
My Xmx value is currently configured on 512mb.
Unfotunately I already incoporated AspectJ into my project. So I dont know
how long it takes for the javac to compile it.
However, when I perform the build using eclipse, the AspectJ builder takes
considerably longer than the Java builder.

I downloaded the AspectJ 1.5.2 version.

The eclipse also has an ASPECTJRT_LIB.jar in the build path which is of
version 1.5.0.
Is it enough to replace the 1.5.0v using the 1.5.2v in my build path?
