AspectJ Modules

-

There are a number of different structures [Parnas] : the module structure, -the uses structure, the runtime structure,… We focus first on the module -structure as found in the org.aspectj and org.eclipse.ajdt cvs roots.
-
-The CVS modules are all rooted at dev.eclipse.org:/home/technology.

This module hides the details of accessing the aspectj compiler and interpreting -compilation results (error messages, structure model etc.) from other -applications (typically IDEs) that need to invoke it programmatically.

-Note: we need to separate the ajde component into two – ajde.core and ajde.ui. -The core should be independent of the ui component (currently this isn’t quite -true).

util

+ Contains an interface and implementation of classes realted to + compiler messages including: source locations, handling, and + formatting.  Intended to minimize dependencies between + testing, the compiler, and ajde.

+

org.aspectj.ajdt.core

 +

asm, bridge, org.eclipse.jdt.core, + runtime, testing-util, util, weaver

 +

+ Front-end of the AspectJ compiler and extension of Eclipse's JDT compiler.  + Extends the JDT compiler's parsing and name resolution to + understand AspectJ declarations.  Also extends incremental + behavior with understanding of AspectJ dependancies.

+

org.eclipse.ajdt.core

 +

+ The additional extensibility needed from the JDT compiler is + captured by these deltas.

+

runtime

 +

 

 +

+ Small runtime library required for building and running AspectJ + programs.

+

taskdefs

 +

bridge, org.aspectj.ajdt.core, + util

 +

+ Ant taskdefs for the ajc and ajdoc command line tools.

+

util

 +

 

 +

+ Common utility classes including data type, file, and stream + manipulation.

+

weaver

 +

asm, bridge, runtime, testing-util, + util

 +

+ Back-end of the AspectJ compiler, built on top of the BCEL + bytecode toolkit.  All advice planning and weaving is done + here.  Takes an aspect bytecode format and other Java + classfiles as input.
