[aspectj-dev] running ajcTests.xml using AJDE

[Wes Isberg <wes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just tried to run ajcTests.xml with -ajdeCompiler and found
the Swing dialog popping up and most tests failing, e.g.,
----
[  0] [error   0]: error This compilation unit indirectly references the 
missing type java.lang.Object (typically some required class file is 
referencing a type outside the classpath) at 
s:\ws\aspectj\testing-drivers\..\tests\pureJava\CaseClauses.java:1:0
----

The failures might be due to relying on a combined command-line
and .lst-file classpath, which used to work, but they're hard
to evaluate with the Swing dialog, which I thought had been
decoupled.  So:

- Is there something that ...testing.ajde.CompileComand needs to
  do to avoid the Swing dialog?

- Is there some way it can set up to run the harness tests?

- Does someone want to get this working before the release?

It was run before the last release, but was disabled in
build/release/build.xml because the Swing dialog caused the process
to never exit.  One goal for avoiding the Swing dependency was to
make these tests runnable as part of the automated release suite.
This is a good test to ensure that the IDE support is doing the
same thing as the command-line compiler.
