Hi Jack,
Yes this support was implemented in
AspectJ 1.5.0 and enhanced in subsequent releases. If you go to eclipse.org/aspectj
you can go to the download page and get the installer for AspectJ 1.5.3, which
has support for annotation style aspects. You can also download the AJDT plugin
for Eclipse from eclipse.org/ajdt. So in short you can use the standard AspectJ
distribution with Java 1.5 to do annotation-based development. Naturally, you
will need to set the Java source level to 1.5 to use annotations (e.g., with
-1.5 or AJDT preferences). It is apparently possible to use the backport175
project to work with annotations on a Java 1.4 or earlier VM but I don’t
know of anyone who’s doing that.

I am new to this list. Has annotation style
been implemented? If yes, where can I find jar's which support the
annotation?
