This does not in +any way change the generated code or supported source code, or the dependencies that code has, but it *does* mean that AspectJ +requires Java5 in order to run. The ability to use typed collections has already flushed out a few issues within the codebase, +improving the quality of AspectJ.</p> +<!-- +<br> +<p><b>Supporting aop.xml for batch or IDE compilation</b></p> +<p>This is a new feature, not totally complete, but in a usable state. The idea here is to make it easier for users to +develop the aop.xml configuration files that will later be used for load-time weaving. If these files are supported for configuring +compile time weaving (batch or IDE) then they can be developed alongside the codebase against which they will be used.</p> +<p>The work-in-progress enhancement is <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=124460">https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=124460</a>. +AspectJ 1.6.6 supports the inclusion of xml files on the command line:</p> +<pre><code>ajc Foo.aj -xmlConfigured myaop.xml</code></pre> +<p>or through iajc. Within the iajc task include a section like this:</p> +<pre><code><inxml> + <pathelement="myaop.xml"/> +</inxml> +</code></pre> +<p>The compiler does not yet support concrete-aspect definitions made in these xml files, but it should respect +include/exclude patterns. It is a work in progress, please provide feedback! Under AJDT there is a configuration page for aop.xml +files to be included in a build under ProjectProperties>AspectJBuild>aop.xml management. Incremental builds based on changes to +these files is not yet supported. IMPORTANT: When switching to using aop.xml files to control compilation, the entire compiler for +that project switches into the same mode as you would see when load-time weaving. What does this mean? It means aspects are +opt-in rather than opt-out - if you want an aspect to weave your code, you must define it in an aop.xml file.</p> + +<br> +<p><b>Aspect scoping in aop.xml</b></p> +<p>This is related to the previous topic. When a user declares an aspect in an aop.xml they can now specify a scope where it +should apply. This enables the aspect developer to have some degree of control over where the aspect can be applied, in addition +to what they may have captured in pointcuts within the defined aspect.</p> +<p>Here is an example:</p> +<pre><code> +<aspectj> +<aspects> + <aspect name="A" scope="B*"/> + <!-- <aspect name="A2"/> --> +</aspects> +</aspectj> +</code></pre> +<p>This XML defines the aspect A but limits where it can be applied to types matching the pattern B*. It is still a work in +progress so scopes are only supported at compile time right now, not load-time. Any feedback appreciated. Yes, it may look like +just another way to specify the weaver section include/exclude patterns - but the intention of scope is that it would be set +by the aspect developer (aspect library provider) whilst the weaver section would be defined by the aspect consumer.</p> +--> +<br> +<p><b>Closing streams</b></p> +<p>Some routes through AspectJ were leaving inputstreams open and this has now been fixed. For example if supplying a user +written configuration file for Lint options. Thanks to Michael Pradel for supplying patches to fix these issues.</p> + +<br> +<p><b>Concurrency (281654)</b></p> +<p>Fix to address a problem seen when using the weaver in a highly concurrent environment. Thanks to Kristian Rosenvold for +the patch.</p> + +<br> +<p><b>Incremental compilation</b></p> +<p>A few fixes to problems seen only on incremental builds, problem areas included:</p><ul> +<li>problems when fully qualifying the target type in an intertype declaration (269652) +<li>problems when using annotation style pointcuts and reference pointcuts together (286341) +</ul> + +<br> +<p><b>JavadocRunner in NetBeans</b></p> +<p>Fixed by a patch from Joseph A. Levin - thanks!</p> + +<br> +<p><b>Various fixes/enhancements to the structure model to fix issues with feedback on weaving in AJDT</b></p> + +<h4> +<!-- ============================== --> +</body> +</html> diff --git a/docs/dist/doc/index.html b/docs/dist/doc/index.html index 228ed9bf7..d8370b67c 100644 --- a/docs/dist/doc/index.html +++ b/docs/dist/doc/index.html @@ -138,6 +138,7 @@ <tr> <td>README's </td> <td>Changes and porting guide for AspectJ + <a href="README-166.html">1.6.6</a>, <a href="README-165.html">1.6.5</a>, <a href="README-164.html">1.6.4</a>, <a href="README-163.html">1.6.3</a>, |
