Just noticed that the advice markers in the editor and outline views are pointing in different directions. I imagine that the editor is correct and the outline view is wrong. Also, the advice markers in the outline view have decorators (showing that they have crosscutting relationships---duh!). The decorators should be removed because they are just causing clutter.
OK. I flipped the advice markers in the gutter, but I realize now that maybe those icons were correct, and it was the outline view that was the problem. The reason for this is that I would expect arrows to be flowing *out* of the advice and *into* advised methods. Now it is the reverse. I'll leave this bug open for now, so that in the future I may reverse all of them again.
Also, the decorators *should* appear on advice if advice affects it. I have a small change that will address this. Will go out in next dev build.
yes, arrows flow out (pointing left) of advice and in (pointing right) to advised locations. What could have triggered them to go wrong? something that has changed recently?
Well, since it's the outline view markers that are incorrect, and I haven't touched them since I started working on AJDT, my guess is that it's been like this for a while, but no one has noticed.
Actually, they might be different in the *outline* view, not I spend a few minutes thinking about. I bet the Eclipse AspectJ book would confirm it. I wouldn't necessarily rush into changing the outline view ones until we've spent a bit more time thinking about it.
