I ran into a bug in incremental compilation that I'm now having a hard time replicating. I had a Servlet class like this:

public class MockServletHangForever extends MockServletCpuHog {
    protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) {
        super.doPost(request, response); 
...
}

The AspectJ compiler incrementally accepted this even though the signature of super.doPost is 
protected void HttpServlet.doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException

On a full compilation the ajc compiler catches this, of course. And once I have made changes like this, I can't seem to get the incremental compiler to accept it again.

However, I discovered this bug because an ant build complained about it and I saw there were no errors in the Eclipse view which had been compiled incrementally!
