In order to keep developers from creating AspectJ releases manually or
using Ant script 'build/build.xml', get rid of all POM templates. This
step does not involve updating any build or release how-to documents or
any other clean-up work under 'build', but it is a first step and a
simple, implicit reminder that now we can build and release using Maven.

This involves replacing references in weaver application code as well as

In order to make AspectJ weaver + tools contain a relocated ASM version,

uber JARs. Relocation works for both binaries and sources and also
encompasses Class::forName calls like in class AsmDetector.

with a simple property like 'maven.deploy.skip' on a per-module basis.

Create javadoc for all public artifacts, fix dependencies
Sonatype OSSRH repository rules require source and javadoc JARs in
order to create staging repositories for releases to be promoted to
Maven Central. So I added build steps to unzip the source JARs and then
create Javadocs for them.
FIXME: This configuration works with JDK 16, but throws errors on other
JDK versions, e.g. 14. It looks as if the Maven Javadoc plugin does not
do a particularly good job applying the plugin settings in a way making
it work with different JDK javadoc tool versions. I am saying that,
because when using the tool directly on the console, it works with basic
settings and the correct classpath.
In order to enable creating uber JARs via Maven Shade in the future, I
also added missing dependencies. Maven Assembly descriptors just assume
that all the necessary class files and sources already exist where it
copies them from. But several of the dependency modules were not
explicitly listed as such by the uber JAR modules. I fixed that.

Add information required by Maven Central to public artifact POMs
This is another step away from manual deployment towards Maven-triggered
deployment for both releases and snapshots. The 5 main POMs (matcher,
runtime, weaver, tools, installer) now contain information required by
Sonatype for Maven Central deployments according to:
https://central.sonatype.org/publish/requirements/
TODO:
- Add corresponding 'distributionManagement' section and necessary
release plugins for Sonatype OSS repositories to parent POM.
- Enable Maven to also use Install plugin in order to automatically
set release versions, commit to Git and tag releases, then upgrade
to a new snapshot afterwards.
- Make sure that Flatten Maven plugin does not strip off the required
tags we just added to the POMs. It looks as if the chosen
flattenMode=oss already retains the exact tags we need, only
slightly reformatting (hence "uglifying") the POM. But an ugly POM
does not block Maven Central deployments, as long as it is complete.
So it looks as if this to-do item is already done.

There is a strange effect in Maven builds: Depending on which profiles
are active when building the project - even seemingly unrelated ones
like 'create-docs' or 'clean-libs' - the execution order of plugins in
the 'process-resources' phase can vary. Specifically, Build Helper vs.
Enforcer in module 'lib', which both were in the same phase, can
sometimes be executed in lexical order, which I expected, or the other
way around, which makes the build fail if the existence of the marker
file is checked by Enforcer before Build Helper even had a chance to
create it. Probably, this is because Build Helper is defined inside a
profile and Enforcer outside of any.
Therefore, the safest way to ensure correct ordering of the two is to
place Enforcer in a later phase, in this case 'compile'.

I tripped over not finding aspectjtools in my IntelliJ Maven view many
times, because it was listed as "AspectJ Compiler". So I renamed it to
"AspectJ Tools (Compiler)". Now it resembles more the artifact ID and
still retains the information that it is the artifact containing AJC.
For the 'lib' module I removed the 'name' tag again, because it is not
one of the main artifacts we publish. Now the POMs are more like Andy
might have intended them to be, using a human-readable 'name' only for
the main artifacts.

In the previous GitHub build, there were warnings in the log because of
failed downloads. Actually, the default is to fail the build, but that
did not happen. Let us try a more recent version, maybe it fixes an old
bug, even though in the diff between the versions I did not see anything
obvious here.
Anyway, I created an issue ticket:
https://github.com/maven-download-plugin/maven-download-plugin/issues/185
BTW, our build only failed later during the Maven Enforcer sanity check,
because several files from the check list were missing after a seemingly
successful provisioning. Actually, I am glad I added this "redundant"
double-checking step to the build, otherwise the build would not have
failed in the 'lib' module but much later in a hard to detect spot.
Signed-off-by: Alexander Kriegisch <Alexander@Kriegisch.name>
Upon special request by Andy Clement, I included 'lib' as a child module
in the parent POM again, making several modules which refer to
downloaded library files dependent the 'lib' module. I am not sure I
caught all of them, but I hope so.
Now after cloning the project and configuring the token for reading from
GitHub Packages (sorry!), you can just run a Maven build for the main
project and no longer need to fail the first build, read the Maven
Enforcer message and run 'cd lib && mvn compile' as a first step. This
convenience comes at the price of a more complex POM and two new
profiles:
- Profile 'provision-libs' is auto-activated by the absence of a
marker file, kicking off the library provisioning process and
creating same marker file at the end, if successful. Therefore,
during subsequent builds libraries will not be re-provisioned,
because the marker file exists and Maven skips all download and
(un)zip steps, which saves build time and bandwidth. Otherwise
offline builds would not work either.
- Profile 'clean-libs' needs to be activated manually, because by
default 'mvn clean' will not erase provisioned libraries. In most
cases, even after a clean a developer does not want to re-provision
all libraries if they have not changed (e.g. new JDT Core build).
But if you do wish too erase the libraries and the marker file, just
call 'cd lib && mvn -P clean-libs clean'.
Please note: The Maven Enforcer build step, which additionally checks
for existence of other files, still exists and was moved from the parent
POM to 'libs'. No matter if provisioning was just done or skipped
because the main marker file exists, a quick heuristic check for that
list of files is done during each build, failing the build with a
comprehensive message if an inconsistency was found. The error message
says which files are missing and tells the user:
"There is an inconsistency in module subdirectory 'lib'. Please run
'mvn --projects lib -P clean-libs clean compile'. This should take
care of cleaning and freshly downloading all necessary libraries to
that directory, where some tests expect them to be."
This should cover the topic.

Prepare main artifacts to be deployed via Maven, step 1
This change affects the following modules:
- aspectjmatcher
- aspectjrt
- aspectjtools
- aspectjweaver
- installer
They have in common that they all use Maven Assembly Plugin in order to
create some kind of uber JARs with constituent modules and/or libraries.
Except for the installer, they are all available on Maven Central today,
but I think it would not hurt to deploy the installer to there, too.
Changes made:
- Use Flatten Maven Plugin in order to create simple POMs with only
basic information and - most importantly - without dependencies.
- The new dependency-reduced POM (DRP) or "flattened POM" gets
attached to the build, i.e. it will be installed and deployed as a
replacement of the original POM.
- Attaching the DRP only works for 'jar' type modules, which is why I
changed the packaging type for each module from 'pom' to 'jar'.
- Deactivate generation of the default JAR for each module. This is
necessary now, since we have the 'jar' packaging type.
- Make sure that assembly descriptors using 'dependencySet' entries
have set option 'useProjectArtifact=false' in order to avoid
warnings about the non-existing main artifact.
TODO:
- Explore option to migrate from Maven Assembly to Maven Shade,
because it does not need descriptor files, can also generate source
JARs and can automatically create and attach a DRP which is less
fragmentary than the one created by Flatten Maven, basically the
original JAR minus the dependencies.
- If in the future we want to make sure to only deploy the modules
listed above, e.g. to Maven Central, if simply calling 'mvn deploy'
for the whole project, we could use 'maven.deploy.skip=true' in the
parent POM and override it by 'maven.deploy.skip=false' just in the
few modules which need to be deployed. See also:

Fix: make sure that source assemblies are attached to build
Previously I renamed the source assemblies from the uniform name
'sources' to something more individual like 'aspectjtools-sources', not
realising that the magic name 'sources' in combination with the default

classifier equal to the assembly ID, i.e. 'sources', which is exactly
what we need here, but not quite obvious. Therefore, I documented it
with comments in both the assemblies and the POMs.

Use dependencies instead of copies under 'lib' for assemblies
This is one step to get rid of org.aspectj:org.eclipse.jdt.core and
org.aspectj:asm-renamed in the 'lib' directory.
AspectJ tools + weaver uber JAR builds now use dependencies in the POM
in order to deal with creating binary + source assemblies. They no
longer rely on manually updated copies under 'lib'. Details:
- Binaries are copied via 'dependencySets' in the assembly descriptor.
- Sources are unzipped via Maven Dependency Plugin before including
them into the source uber JAR via assembly descriptor.
- NEW: This also includes ASM-renamed sources which so far were
ignored. It is a positive side-effect from the fact that for
ASM-renamed Maven Shade automatically creates a source JAR.
- Maven Ant Run is no longer used for unzipping binary + source JARs.
- While working in parallel with JDT Core and AspectJ it is now much
easier to produce up to date artifacts, e.g. for consumption by
AJDT, because it does not matter anymore if we forget to run the
build in module 'lib' in order to update the JDT Core copy.
Status quo:
- Folder lib/asm is no longer used and will be removed in a subsequent
commit.
- Folder lib/jdtcore-aj is no longer used by the Maven build, but
still referenced in a few UNIX shell scripts and Ant build files.
TODO: Find out if those are still actively used. If yes, refactor
them to look for the file in the local Mavven repository. Otherwise,

Now finally the properties file is as lean as I envisioned it to be,
without any loss of information and without the need of future manual

Recreate lib/commons from Apache Commons downloads
Project archeology, binary and source code comparisons of contents in
lib/commons/commons.jar and lib/commons/commons-src.zip yielded the
following results:
- All binaries are available on Maven Central in 4 different legacy
Apache Commons dependencies:
* commons-beanutils:commons-beanutils:1.4
* commons-collections:commons-collections:2.0
* commons-digester:commons-digester:1.3
* commons-logging:commons-logging:1.0.1
- Those Maven Central binaries are not accompanied by source JARs,
i.e. in order to recreate lib/commons/commons-src.zip we have to
download source archives from the corresponding Git tags. All
projects are available on GitHub, so it is possible to download them
using Maven Download Plugin.
- Both the compound binaries and compound sources archives currently
checked in in AspectJ can be recreated using TrueZIP Maven Plugin.
This is rather tedious and involves additional Maven profiles in
order not to generate the compound archives during every build, but
fully implemented now.
Unfortunately, all of the above does not make the system-scoped
dependency on commons.jar obsolete. In order to achieve that, we either
have to publish the compound files on Maven Central or GitHub Packages,
or we find out which AspectJ modules use classes from which of the 4
individual Apache Commons packages and replace the compound system
dependency by the relevant single dependencies. Probably I am going to
try that in a next step.

Make all tests run on Java 16 via '-add-opens' JVM option
Due to JEP 260 (Encapsulate Most Internal APIs), aspect weaving on
Java 16 now requires '--add-opens java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED' on
the command line. Otherwise there will be illegal access exceptions for
some internal API calls AspectJ needs, most prominently when trying to
define classes in other packages or modules.
This had to be done on several levels:
- Maven Surefire: running tests in a JVM directly forked by Surefire.
In order to make this backwards compatible, I added two profiles
with JDK-level-dependent auto-activation, one 8-15 and one 16+. In
the latter a property containing the JVM parameter is defined, in
the former it is empty, i.e. the JVM is started without the
parameter. In Java 8 the parameter did not even exist, in Java 9+ we
could use it, but we need to test how users use AspectJ.
- RunSpec: Whenever an XML test is declared to use '<run>', we need to
determine the current JVM version and again dynamically add the
parameter when forking the target JVM.
- AntSpec: Whenever an XML test is declared to use '<ant>', we need to
determine the current JVM version dynamically add two properties
usable from within Ant scripts: 'aj.addOpensKey' and
'aj.addOpensValue'. Unfortunately, Ant needs to use two '<argLine>'
parameters, because the two parts of the option are separated by a
space character.
- Ant scripts: When triggered by an AntSpec, each Ant target using LTW
needs to manually set
<jvmarg value="${aj.addOpensKey}"/>
<jvmarg value="${aj.addOpensValue}"/>
for each '<java>' task. It was quite tedious to find all(?) of them.
TODO: In the AspectJ 1.9.7 release notes we need to document that this
parameter is now needed for LTW.

Before Java 16, JDK proxies were given a virtual package name of
'com.sun.proxy'. Now the packages are numbered 'jdk.proxy[n]', i.e.
'jdk.proxy1', 'jdk.proxy2' etc. This makes the package-name-derived path
name here less predictable. In our simple runtime scenario, we can be
pretty sure than the counter starts at 1 because it is the first and
only proxy we create.
TODO: A better solution would be a recursive filtered search via
Files.walk, ideally added as a recursive search option for
CountingFilenameFilter.

Deactivate test run in 'run-all-unit-tests' module by default
There is a new Maven profile 'repeat-all-unit-tests', and the name
already implies what a comment in the Maven module explains like this:
ATTENTION: This profile is inactive by default, because when active and
running a full reactor build, it makes almost all tests run 2x, doubling
the build time without any added value. This Maven module only exists
for convenience: As a developer, your IDE can detect and run
'RunTheseBeforeYouCommitTests'. That way, you do not have to use Maven
and get the test results reported within the IDE's JUnit user interface.

Add Java 16 Linux matcher variant to HtmlDecorator
The Java 16 Javadoc generator has changed the HTML structure once again
even compared to Java 15. I adjusted the matching in HtmlDecorator and
also fixed CoverageTestCase. Most methods there I just made to work
quickly, but method 'testInnerAspect()' I actually refactored. Some
other methods could (probably should) be restructured in a similar
fashion, but for now I just wanted to understand what the test does and
see how much work it would be to refactor it. But finally, I just want
to get the GitHub CI build running on Java 16.
TODO: I did not check if the decorated HTML actually looks OK and am
unsure if the tests cover that sufficiently, I never reviewed the tests.
It would also be better to do regex matches instead of looking for
variants of fixed strings or maybe even to operate on a DOM. But I am
not in a mood to refactor that tonight.

Add diagnostic output to HtmlDecorator if AJ-Doc generation fails
HtmlDecorator.decorateHTMLFile is where after Java version upgrades
(i.e. also new Javadoc generator version) usually tests fail for the
first time during builds because strings no longer match as expected.
There now is this log message on stdOut: "Something unexpected went
wrong in HtmlDecorator. Here is the full file causing the problem:"
After that, a full HTML page is logged. I hope this helps me identify
the new error on GitHub Linux Java 16, because the same test works on
Windows and I have no idea how to remote-debug a GitHub CI build.

Make BCEL classpath utility recognise Java 16-19, fixing many tests
This is a follow-up commit on @07af5d41:
Inside org.aspectj.apache.bcel.util.ClassPath.getClassPath(), some JVM
version matching occurs which previously did not include Java 16 (I also
added 17-19 to the regex matcher). This fixes test errors like:
java.lang.ClassCastException:
class org.aspectj.weaver.MissingResolvedTypeWithKnownSignature
cannot be cast to class
org.aspectj.weaver.ReferenceType
(org.aspectj.weaver.MissingResolvedTypeWithKnownSignature and
org.aspectj.weaver.ReferenceType are in unnamed module
of loader 'app')

After Ajc usage text output is filtered into its own category
IMessage.USAGE now - see commit @31b2d60b - some tests in module
'org.aspectj.ajdt.core' were failing. I fixed and also improved them a
bit in @e4a2a5a5, but forgot to commit this one.

Set explicit en_US locale for build timestamps in Build Helper Maven
There were warnings that builds were dependent on the system local
(de_DE in my case). In patterns like "EEEE MMM d, yyyy", parts like day
of week or month names would change otherwise.
