The examples help a bit. I much prefer the digested explanations like in the wiki but it seems you guys are quite busy and there are not enough contributors. > The AST support is far from complete and traditionally the users > provide patches back that augment what we have with what they need and > I commit them. > See the bug reports on creating AjASTVisitors - best place to find > what does and doesn't work is look at the test cases you can reach > them by browsing cvs > http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.aspectj/modules/org.aspectj.ajdt.core/testsrc/org/aspectj/tools/ajc/ASTVisitorTest.java?root=Tools_Project&view=markup > http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.aspectj/modules/org.aspectj.ajdt.core/testsrc/org/aspectj/tools/ajc/?root=Tools_Project The tests and examples are all using the classes from the *.dom package.
