I have a bit of both, having built an AspectJ plugin for J#'s predecessor VJ++. J# can be used as an editor for AspectJ, and the compiler executed either on the command line or invoked as a command from VisualStudio. However, you'll find this mode cumbersome since J# understands neither J2 nor AspectJ. Since the AspectJ tools are intended to extend J2 platforms, there won't be tool support beyond using J# as an editor, just as there isn't javac support. So I guess the question is: why are you interested in J# support? Microsoft has announced that their Java VM is pretty much dead. I agree that it would be great to have AOP support in .NET, but it seems that should start via C# and CLR extensions. Microsoft still hasn't said anything concrete about that, but earlier this week Gates did mention AOP as a priority. Which is great, assuming that they don't misconstrue AOP as the much more limited attribute-oriented programming. "Gates told the architects that Microsoft would be embracing model-oriented architecture and aspect-oriented programming." http://computerworld.co.nz/news.nsf/0/A453734B3782CAFDCC256ED000171C8D?OpenD ocument <http://computerworld.co.nz/news.nsf/0/A453734B3782CAFDCC256ED000171C8D?Open Document&pub=Computerworld> &pub=Computerworld Mik -- http://kerstens.org/mik
