Re: [ajdt-dev] building AspectJ + AJDT

["Wes Isberg" <wes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Generally, for building the AspectJ project, there's a FAQ entry 
and module readme HTML's, esp. in the build module.  The FAQ entry 
is out of date in not mentioning the new aspectjrt and org.aspectj.lib
modules/projects, but should otherwise be correct, e.g., in 
excluding aspectj-attic from the list of modules to download.

More specific answers:

> ASPECTJRT_LIB = 

This is an AspectJ project, so if you have AJDT, the variable should
be set up already.

Yes.
