Description Adrian Powell

ajc ignores resource files (e.g.: *.properties) instead of copying them into the
output folder as expected.  This is reported fixed in bug ID 36071 for AspectJ
1.1.1, but I have verified the defect exists in v1.1.1 and 1.2, using the
command-line and AJDT v1.1.4 (upgraded to AspectJ 1.2) in Eclipse 2.1.

Command line:
ajc -sourceroots src  -d bin

javac does not do resource copying and nor does ajc unless binary weaving. In 
Eclipse however the JDT _does_ copy resources (jpg, properties, xml, ...) 
from "src" to "bin" and the AJDT does likewise so that when a project is 
converted from Java to AspectJ it should continue to work with its resources.

I verified this is fixed in AJDT 1.1.6, thanks Matthew.
