Re: [aspectj-users] Ant <iajc/> task and CVS watch/edit

["Wes Isberg" <wes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The ajc compiler's -sourceroots option did not prune CVS or
SCCS dirs, 
so <iajc> does the same.  There's a workaround in the
AspectJ
tree (circa January) for bug

  https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=48650

However, it should work to exclude the files using
filesets.
(Don't specify sourceroots, which takes any source file
and is not under Ant's control.) Enable iajc's verbose 
attribute to list the files being compiled.  As a
degenerate
case, you can use <javac> but specify ajc using the
build.compiler property.
