[aspectj-users] AspectJ 1.6.7 released

[Andy Clement <andrew.clement@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm very pleased to announce that AspectJ 1.6.7 is now available for
download.

Readme is here: http://eclipse.org/aspectj/doc/released/README-167.html

The readme contains a link to the full list of fixes.  Highlights in
this release:

- matching overhauled to speed up weaving
- more optimal processing of aop.xml include/excludes
- annotation binding improvements
- some experimental options (eg. type demotion) now 'promoted' and on by default
- pointcut matching timer information for analysing expensive pointcuts
- improvements to memory management for load time weaving

See the readme for more information.  The readme also links to several
blog articles that provide detailed information.

AspectJ 1.6.7 is available at the download page (source jars are also
available there):

http://www.eclipse.org/aspectj/downloads.php

It is not yet in maven central - hopefully soon.

Thanks to everyone that has helped by raising bugs and contributing
testcases (and fixes!).

It will be in AJDT imminently.
