Description Matt Chapman 2005-09-14 06:06:29 EDT

Testcase: A.aj containing:

final abstract aspect A {}

This causes the compiler to abort with an internal compiler error:

ABORT

The expected behaviour is naturally just to get a regular compiler errror saying
"The aspect A can be either abstract or final, not both".
