When using private static aspects inside a class (e.g. using the Participant 
pattern as described in Laddad: AspectJ in Action), the compiler reports a 
warning about the type never being used, e.g.:

The private type RowSet.ConstructorCallControlAspect is never used locally

  This, of course, only happens when the setting "Window-->Preferences-->Java--
>Compiler-->Unused code-->Unused or unread private members" is set to Warning.

  These warnings should not be generated as aspects are (almost) never referred 
to anywhere else in the code, so they are not really unused even if references 
do not exist.
