RE: [aspectwerkz-user] From aspectwerkz to aspectJ

Hi,
     Could you explain this ? 

1. Is AspectJ going to support plain java syntax ?
2. Which version of AspectJ/AJDT should I use with JDK 5 features and
eclipse 3.1?
3. Does AspectJ5 work with eclipse 3.1 ?

Mohan

Hi

Let me give the details:
AspectJ as available today is wether M2, wether "nightly build ie
upccoming M3".

If I assume you need the "plain java syntax" ie aspect defined with
annotation aka @AspectJ then this is part of M3. You can thus use the
nightly build, or wait M3.
The "how-to" material is still quite limited, though feature complete
from a syntax point of view is close (left aside hot deployment and some
other things).
I am planning to write some more how-to very soon.

Aside there is some work going on to better integrate AJDT (AspectJ
Eclipse
plugin) for the @Aspect syntax but again this is rather under
development.

AspectJ M3 is due mid july, final is end of the summer.
For migration I would advise to wait some more. For new needs, I would
strongly advise it as soon as M3 is out.

We will definitely make announcements and write how-to to help you in
this phases.
Alex
