RE: [aspectj-dev] Plan for AOSD release??

["Mik Kersten" <mik@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We agreed that AJDE provides AJBrowser/JBuilder/NetBeans with the same model
that they expected with the 1.0 release.  That model was specified with the
"uses pointcut" association, and there are two views in those products that
depend on that structure.  So this is not a feature-request.  

Removing those views is an alternative.  However, since that association
should be trivial to implement it will be less destabilizing to just put it
back in the model.  I will do it during or after the conference.

I'm itching to revise the structure model specification, but that's best to
do after the 1.1 release.  I think that it should be driven by the
integration with Eclipse's eagerly-built Java model.  It will be nice for
AJDT to have the built-in support for navigating references work for named
pointcuts.
