Re: [aspectj-dev] Getting source code positions for advice

[Andy Clement <andrew.clement@xxxxxxxxx>]

If doing a full compile you can specify the option -emacssym and it
will be created inside the World object and accessible through
world.getModel().  If binary weaving (loadtime weaving), probably not,
as the compiler creates a lot of the up front pieces of the structure
- I'm not sure how you are operating the weaver in order to access the
internals.

You could look at the AJDT wiki article that talks about using the
parser standalone:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Developer%27s_guide_to_building_tools_on_top_of_AJDT_and_AspectJ

(obviously an ast for the file would give you accurate positions).

Or you could access the bytecode and look at the line number table for
the advice method, the last entry will give you an indication of where
the last bit of code is in the advice.

cheers
