[aspectj-users] AJDT not highlighting pointcuts when working with generi

[Jacob Bower <jacob@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

For some reason when I'm editing Java in Eclipse using AJDT some pointcuts involving both generics and arrays or var-args are not being highlighted (either with a little arrow or in the cross-reference view). The advice seems to be woven in correctly however.

The following example illustrates my problem:

public aspect Failing {
    pointcut failingPointcut() : execution(* foo*(..));
    
    after() returning() : failingPointcut()
    {
        System.out.println("hit");

    }
}

class X <T extends Object> {
    // Pointcut match highlighted
    void foo() {}
    
    // Pointcut match highlighted
    void foo1(T x) {}    
    
    // Pointcut not highlighted

    void foo2(T[] x) {}
    
    // Pointcut not highlighted
    void foo3(T... x) {}
    
    // Pointcut highlighted
    T foo3() { return null; }
    
    // Pointcut highlighted
    T[] foo4() { return null; }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        X<Object> x = new X<Object>();
        
        x.foo2(null);        
    }
}

Running this class produces the output:
hit


Am I missing something, or is this a bug?

Eclispe reports my AspectJ envrionment as:

Eclipse AspectJ Development Tools

Version: 2.0.0.e35x-20090624-1600
AspectJ version: 1.6.5.20090618034232


This caught me out for quite a while trying to figure out why my pointcut wasn't being matched...
