Re: [aspectj-dev] declare parents problem with non-public classes?

[Andrew Clement <CLEMAS@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Keven,

I believe this is fixed in the current
AspectJ codebase (we hope to release it as AspectJ 1.2.1 shortly).
I tried your program, got the warning
on 1.2 and then no warning on the latest build of AJ.

If you want to download it now, we always
keep the most recent good build at:

http://download.eclipse.org/technology/ajdt/dev/aspectj-DEVELOPMENT.jar

The build at this location has always
passed the entire test suite for AspectJ, the most recent is from
13:46 today.

regards,
Andy.

Subject	[aspectj-dev] declare parents problem with non-public classes?

I'm running into problems using declare parents on
non-public classes.  
When the code below is compiled, it runs fine (as expected).  If,
however, the package declaration is uncommented, and the declares parent
is changed to the currently commented out line, then AJC reports the 
following:

RunnableAspect.aj:2 warning no match for this type name: 
mypackage$MyClass$MyInnerClass [Xlint:invalidAbsoluteTypeName]
      [ajc] declare parents: mypackage.MyClass$MyInnerClass
implements 
Runnable;
      [ajc]              
   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


If the inner-class is defined as "public", then there is no problem
with 
the compilation.

If the inner-class is moved outside of "MyClass", but defined
in the 
same java file, the compilation fails as well.

This suggests that there is a problem with declare parents and 
non-public classes.  Is this known/expected?  If not, I'll be
happy to 
file a bug report.  I'm using the AspectJ 1.2.

Thanks!

<MyClass.java>

// package mypackage;

public class MyClass {
  public MyClass() {
    MyInnerClass mic = new MyClass.MyInnerClass();
    if (mic instanceof Runnable)
      mic.run();
  }
 
  class MyInnerClass {
    public void run() {
      System.out.println("In MyInnerClass.run()!!");
    }
  }
 
  public static void main(String args[]) {
    new MyClass();
  }
}

</MyClass.java>

<RunnableAspect.aj>
public aspect RunnableAspect {
  declare parents: MyClass$MyInnerClass implements Runnable;
  // declare parents: mypackage.MyClass$MyInnerClass implements Runnable;
}
</RunnableAspect.aj>
