[aspectj-users] java.lang.AbstractMethodError?

[Dave Whittaker <dave@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I just saw some behavior that I thought was a little bit weird and was  
wondering if someone could explain how it might happen.

A class advised by a (surprise!) ITD is throwing an  
AbstractMethodError from within an $interMethodDispatch1$ method.  The  
class is compiling fine and has an implementation of the method in  
question both in the ITD and directly within the advised class.  Seems  
to me like this shouldn't be possible.... If the method has no  
implementation (and I can't see inside the $interMethodDispatch1$  
call, so I'm not sure what exactly is throwing the error, but  
regardless) then the class shouldn't compile in the first place.  Or  
am I missing something.....  Some stack below:

Caused by: java.lang.AbstractMethodError
	at h2.actions.SelectActionAspect.ajc 
$interMethodDispatch1$h2_actions_SelectActionAspect 
$h2_actions_SelectAction$setSele
