When developing aspects as annotations, i get a NullPointerException when saving a source file which has duplicated method names. Obviously that also breaks the java code itself but it also pops up an aspectj message info.

Here is a sample code:

@Aspect
public class AspectClass{
	
	@Pointcut("call(@Incoming * *(..))")
	public void incomingMessage() {
	}

	
	@Pointcut("call(@Activity * *(..))")
	public void incomingMessage() {
	}
	
}

The npe is the following:

java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.aspectj.ajdt.internal.compiler.lookup.EclipseSourceType.makeResolvedPointcutDefinition(EclipseSourceType.java:217)
