Description Simone Gianni CLA 2009-07-22 22:37:34 EDT 
Build ID: 20090619-0625

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Create a X class
2. Create an aspect containing :

public X X.getMe() {
  return this;
}

3. Look at the rough red mark that appears :)



More information:
Tested on Eclipse Galileo, AJDT version 2.0.0.e35x-20090624-1600 with AspectJ version 1.6.5.20090618034232.

AspectJ does accept such code. It is used extensively in a number of libraries that employ chained invocations.

This is a problem with the reconciler.  I'll have a look at this next week.
Comment 2 Andrew Eisenberg CLA 2009-07-27 14:00:55 EDT 
Fixed with regression tests.  Will be available in next dev build of the 3.5 stream.
