Re: [ajdt-dev] building AspectJ + AJDT

[Andrew Clement <CLEMAS@xxxxxxxxxx>]

that all sounds good.  java5 has
contents in the branch, but may 
yet get deleted if we are sure aspectj5rt
can contain everything 
we need.  Just close aspectj-attic,
it contains old stuff we don't
use.  The distribution under aj-build
is what you want, you will 
need to point the org.aspectj.ajde/build.xml
at it for 
rebuilding ajde.jar (when you start
building AJDT).  You can 
configure build.xml by creating an
aspectjlib.properties file 
in the org.aspectj.ajde plugin.

org.aspectj.lib should be built by
AJDT so you should have that
installed in your 3.1m5 - there shouldn't
be a need to alter the
aspectjrt_lib variable for that project.

OK, I tried setting up a new workspace for AspectJ. I checked out all 
projects under /home/technology/org.aspectj/modules, and tried setting
them up to build under eclipse (3.1M5a running on JDK 1.5.0_01, no AJDT
installed ATP).

Things I noticed:

* java5 project contains no source files (moved to aspectj5rt if I guess
corectly). There's no need to check it out into workspace. It probably
could be deleted physically from the repo, unless revision information
in it is valuable.

* aspectj-attic project has seriously incomplete classpath. I removed if
from my workspace for now.

* I needed to set the following classpath variables:

JRE15_LIB = <JAVA5_HOME>/jre/lib/rt.jar (needed by aspectj5rt)
ASPECTJRT_LIB = <WORKSPACE>/lib/aspectj/lib/aspectjrt.lib (needed
by 
org.apspectj.lib)

I am not sure if I used the correct value for the second one.

As for building: I've clicked 'Run as Ant build' on /build/build.xml and
after few minutes of happy grinding it produced two directories in my 
workspace aj-build-results (blank) and aj-build with the expected 
contents (compiled distribution, docs and so forth). Is this the 
expected location (outside projects in the workspace) or should I set 
some configuration variables?

I'll try checking out / building AJDT tomorrow morning.
