[aspectj-users] IntelliJ IDEA and AspectJ

Hi,

IntelliJ 9.0 has been released with support for all kinds of languages (some of which are very new), but not AspectJ, although this great language exists for 10 years already. Do you think we should start a petition to try to get AspectJ support in the next IntelliJ version or all you guys all very happy with Eclipse and could not care less?

I think that if at least 1 major competitor would also have AspectJ support, it would greatly enhance the adaption of AOP in general in AspectJ in particular.

I did send an email to jetbrains about it and it should be possible to do in a plugin, given enough resources. Are there people here interested in starting such a project? Should we start a petition to make jetbrains do it? ;) Should SpringSource sponser it to help AspectJ adoption and their Spring Roo project that heavely uses it? Without proper AspectJ support in other IDE's, your are stuck to Eclipse and IntelliJ is just too great to switch to Eclipse.

I would like to hear your thoughts on this.

regards,

Wim
