I thought you would find case 4 interesting ;)

If you simply splat aspectjtools.jar over the
org.aspectj.ajde/ajde.jar file in AJDT, you will pick up the latest
fixes in AspectJ but things will break in AJDT in subtle ways,
probably things like code completion/etc - I can't say for certain but
it will be unpredictable.  You need to use the build.xml in the ajde
plugin to create an ajde.jar from some input aspectj build.

Sounds like a bug, please raise it.  I've not been checking whats in
each jar lately.  If you are just doing 'ant clean' 'ant build' in the
build module - you arent doing anything wrong, thats all that I do.

You don't need them all - for building you just need 15.  the build
machine uses the others for testing.
