[ajdt-dev] proceed() marked as error - weird side effect

["Neale Upstone" <neale.upstone@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Here's an interesting one in AJDT.

The code below complains about the proceed(map) call, but seems to be a
side effect of being in a larger aspect (which this used to be).  For
example if the larger aspect defined a constant, the error is there.  If
I comment out the line defining the constant, the error vanishes.

Cheers,

Neale

P.S. Can we have the 1.7 stream updated with a new AJDE when 1.6.5 does
too (Sunday's build is using AJ from 27th Feb).
It'll help those of us that are looking to shake down 3.5 in daily use,
while still pushing forward with the latest AJ updates.
