Hi Gilbert,

There are several different ways of connecting projects together and
weaving aspects across projects. The "Managing multiple projects"
section of this article might provide some useful tips:

I'd say it is usually best to arrange your projects in a strict
dependency order, which defines the compilation order, and for the use
of aspects to follow the same order - e.g. the aspects from project A
are woven into project B, but not the other way round.

Regards,

Matt.
