Description Sian January CLA 2005-12-02 05:58:51 EST 
I am working with the new AST support, however ASTParser states that to be able to resolve bindings it needs an IJavaProject instance.  Calling org.aspectj.org.eclipse.jdt.core.JavaCore.create(IProject) causes the following exception to be thrown: 

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
at org.aspectj.org.eclipse.jdt.core.JavaCore.create(JavaCore.java:1213)
at org.eclipse.ajdt.internal.ui.viewsupport.SelectionListenerWithAJASTManager$PartListenerGroup.calculateASTandInform(SelectionListenerWithAJASTManager.java:173)
at org.eclipse.ajdt.internal.ui.viewsupport.SelectionListenerWithAJASTManager$3.run(SelectionListenerWithAJASTManager.java:145)
at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.Worker.run(Worker.java:76)

It would be nice to have this supported so that this feature of the AST can be used.

the 3.2 compiler allows AST manipulation without initializing projects and things... so this should be fixed when the 3.2compiler is integrated.
Comment 2 Rafal Krzewski CLA 2006-10-19 18:18:19 EDT 
Is there a workaround for this problem with the current compiler, ie. a way to manualy intialize 'projects and things' before calling this method? Or do I have to wait for the new compiler to be integrated to get hold on AJ's version of ICompilationUnit? 
If I understand things correctly the latter is a prequisite for resolving type bindings in the AST tree. (See bug 146528)
Comment 3 Macneil Shonle CLA 2007-01-16 16:31:32 EST 
I would also be interested in any workarounds possible, including something along the lines of setSource(char[]). I'd really like to build upon AJDT and this is blocking me.
Comment 4 Andrew Clement CLA 2007-10-23 11:46:27 EDT 
The compiler upgrade may resolve this problem
