Re: [aspectj-dev] StructuredSelection returns jdt project nature, but I

["Matt Chapman" <mpchapman@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Pat,

An AspectJ project *is* a Java project - a real
org.eclipse.jdt.core.IJavaElement. The org.aspectj.* versions of JDT
classes are for the AspectJ compiler. When working at the Eclipse
level, you need to work in terms of the real eclipse classes, not the
org.aspectj ones. So after getting an IProject object, you can
determine whether it is an AspectJ project by checking whether it has
the AspectJ nature (see AspectJPlugin.isAJProject() in the
org.eclipse.ajdt.core plugin).

Regards,

Matt.
