Description Andrew Eisenberg CLA 2012-09-04 14:06:07 EDT 
Getting an illegal argument exception for AspectJ code with a bad pointcut.  

In org.aspectj.org.eclipse.jdt.core.dom.ASTConverter.convert(ASTNode[]) around line 1020, there is a statement: 
    					typeDecl.bodyDeclarations().add(convert(false, nextMethodDeclaration));

Please change this to:

    Declare declareDecl = convert(false, nextMethodDeclaration);
    if (declareDecl != null;
      typeDecl.bodyDeclarations().add(declareDecl);
    }


Here is the aspect causing the trouble:

package asp;

public aspect Asp {
	declare @constructor : call(static public void main.Main.new(..)) : @Deprecated; 
}
