Re: [aspectj-dev] New build errors in sept 11 release of ajc

[Macneil Shonle <mshonle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

        I made a small test case for the problem I spoke about earlier.
        First, here are the versions of AspectJ I'm using (this is a bash
        shell under cygwin on Windows XP):

~> CLASSPATH='C:\aspectj1.0\lib\aspectjrt.jar' /cygdrive/c/aspectj1.0/bin/ajc -version
ajc version 1.0.6 (built Jul 24, 2002 6:21 PM PST) running on java
1.4.1_02
~> CLASSPATH='C:\aspectj1.1\lib\aspectjrt.jar' /cygdrive/c/aspectj1.1/bin/ajc -version
AspectJ Compiler 1.1.0
~> CLASSPATH='C:\aspectj1.1.1rc1\lib\aspectjrt.jar' /cygdrive/c/aspectj1.1.1rc1/bin/ajc -version
AspectJ Compiler 1.1.1rc1
~> CLASSPATH='C:\aspectj1.1.1\lib\aspectjrt.jar' /cygdrive/c/aspectj1.1.1/bin/ajc -version
AspectJ Compiler 1.1.1

        For all four of these compilers, I give them the AspectBug.java file
        (which is attached):

~> CLASSPATH='C:\aspectj1.0\lib\aspectjrt.jar' /cygdrive/c/aspectj1.0/bin/ajc AspectBug.java
~> CLASSPATH='C:\aspectj1.1\lib\aspectjrt.jar' /cygdrive/c/aspectj1.1/bin/ajc AspectBug.java
~> CLASSPATH='C:\aspectj1.1.1rc1\lib\aspectjrt.jar' /cygdrive/c/aspectj1.1.1rc1/bin/ajc AspectBug.java
~> CLASSPATH='C:\aspectj1.1.1\lib\aspectjrt.jar' /cygdrive/c/aspectj1.1.1/bin/ajc AspectBug.java
C:\Documents and Settings\Macneil Shonle\AspectBug.java:7 incompatible type, expected ContainerDescriptor found BindingTypePattern(AbstractCaching$Key, 0)

1 error

        As you can see, only the final run (with the Sept 11 build of
        ajc) do we see the "incompatible type" error. If this is not a
        regression but a desirable result, how should the code be ported?

Thanks,
Macneil


public aspect AspectBug extends AbstractCaching

{
	declare parents: ContainerDescriptor implements AbstractCaching.Key;

	protected pointcut loadExecutions( Key key ):
		ContainerLoader.containerLoads( *, key );
}
