<h1>AspectJ 1.9.8</h1>

<p>
  Please note that Bugzilla for issue management is deprecated and new issues should be filed as
  <a href="https://github.com/eclipse/org.aspectj/issues/new">GitHub issues</a>.
  The list of issues addressed for 1.9.8 can be found

<h2>New features</h2>

<p>
  AspectJ 1.9.8 supports <a href="https://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk/17/">Java 17</a> and its final and preview
  features, such as:
</p>
<ul>
  <li>Sealed classes (final in Java 17, previews in Java 15, 16 and AspectJ 1.9.7)</li>
  <li>Pattern matching for <tt>switch</tt></li>
</ul>
<p>
  For features marked as preview on a given JDK, you need to compile with <tt>ajc --enable-preview</tt> and run with
  <tt>java --enable-preview</tt> on that JDK.
</p>
<p>
  Please note that you cannot run code compiled with preview features on any other JDK than the one used for
  compilation. For example, records compiled with preview on JDK 15 cannot be used on JDK 16 without recompilation. This
  is a JVM limitation unrelated to AspectJ. Also, e.g. sealed classes are preview-1 on JDK 15 and preview-2 on JDK 16.
  You still need to recompile, no matter what.
</p>

<h2>Improvements</h2>

<p>
  The <tt>--release N</tt> compiler option for correct cross-compilation to previous JDK bytecode + API versions is now
  supported by AJC. Previously, the option existed (inherited by ECJ) but did not work correctly.
</p>

<h2>Code examples</h2>

<p>
  You can find some sample code in the AspectJ test suite under the respective AspectJ version in which the features
  were first supported (possibly as JVM preview features):
</p>
<ul>
  <li>
    <a href="https://github.com/eclipse/org.aspectj/tree/master/tests/features198/compiler_release">
      Cross-compilation to legacy JDK
    </a>:
    An example class which only works correctly on JDK 8 when compiled with <tt>--release 8</tt> due to API changes in
    the JDK. Simply <tt>-source 8 -target 8</tt> would not be enough in this case.</li>
  <li>
    <a href="https://github.com/eclipse/org.aspectj/tree/master/tests/features198/java17">
      Pattern matching for switch
    </a>
  </li>
</ul>

<h2>Using LTW on Java 16+</h2>

<p>
  Please note that if you want to use load-time weaving on Java 16+, the weaving agent collides with
  <a href="https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/396">JEP 396 (Strongly Encapsulate JDK Internals by Default)</a>. Therefore,
  you need to set the JVM parameter <tt>--add-opens java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED</tt> in order to enable aspect
  weaving. This is due to the fact that the weaver uses internal APIs for which we have not found an adequate
  replacement yet when defining classes in different classloaders.
</p>

<h2>Other changes and bug fixes</h2>

<ul>
  <li>
    The AspectJ compiler <tt>ajc</tt> (contained in the <tt>aspectjtools</tt> library) no longer works on JDKs 8 to 10. The minimum
    compile-time requirement is now JDK 11 due to upstream changes in the Eclipse Java Compiler (subset of JDT Core),
    which AspectJ is a fork of. You can still compile to legacy target versions as low as Java 1.3 when compiling plain
    Java code or using plain Java ITD constructs which do not require the AspectJ runtime <tt>aspectjrt</tt>, but the compiler
    itself needs JDK 11+. Just like in previous AspectJ versions, both the runtime <tt>aspectjrt</tt> and the load-time weaver
    <tt>aspectjweaver</tt> still only require JRE 8+.
  </li>
  <li>Document build profiles and properties in <i>docs/developer/BUILD.md</i></li>
  <li>Add a guide for setting up an AspectJ development environment in <i>docs/developer/IDE.md</i></li>
  <li>Allow JAR saving if <tt>-proceedOnError</tt> is specified</li>
</ul>
