In two places, the documentation now contains this text:
"Since AspectJ 1.9.7, the obsolete Oracle/BEA JRockit agent is no longer
part of AspectJ. JRockit JDK never supported Java versions higher than
1.6. Several JRockit JVM features are now part of HotSpot and tools like
Mission Control available for OpenJDK and Oracle JDK."
The decision to drop JRockit support was made during a discussion
between Alexander Kriegisch and Andy Clement:

There are two styles to convert a collection to an array: either using a pre-sized array (like c.toArray(new String[c.size()])) or using an empty array (like c.toArray(new String[0]).
In older Java versions using pre-sized array was recommended, as the reflection call which is necessary to create an array of proper size was quite slow. However since late updates of OpenJDK 6 this call was intrinsified, making the performance of the empty array version the same and sometimes even better, compared to the pre-sized version. Also passing pre-sized array is dangerous for a concurrent or synchronized collection as a data race is possible between the size and toArray call which may result in extra nulls at the end of the array, if the collection was concurrently shrunk during the operation.

'String.indexOf()' expression is replaceable with 'contains()'
Reports any String.indexOf() expressions which can be replaced with a call to the String.contains() method available in Java 5 and newer.

Reports for loops which iterate over collections or arrays, and can be replaced with an enhanced for loop (i.e. the foreach iteration syntax).
