[aspectj-users] AJDT generate aop-ajc issue

[Zarick Lau <zarick@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear developers and user,

I've going to build some development aspect for tracing / logging purpose.
But got a strange problem with Eclipse/AJDT.

Here, I have an simple AspectJ project (with two aspect file)
And other set of existing production project.

I try to launch the exiting project as "AspectJ Load-Time Weaving Application".
Whenever I launch it, an empty aop-ajc.xml file is generated on the
AspectJ project.
In AspectJ Compiler setting "Outxml" is disabled.

And the empty aop-ajc.xml is generated in the following path:
<src-folder>/META-INF/aop-ajc.xml

As it generate an empty file, a premature file exception is thrown from SAX
and the LTW is failed.

How can I prevent the generation of the empty xml?
Any helps, hints or pointer is greatly appreciate! Thanks very much!

Below is the full stack trace found during LTW launch:
