Re: [aspectj-users] ajcore in maven builds - shouldn't this fail?

["Neale Upstone" <neale@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ooops.. That would be useful wouldn't it!!

It's incompatible aspectj versions.  The following is logged when doing
a "mvn compile", and I would have thought ABORT would mean we are not
going to continue with the build, but instead the build is reported as
successful.

  [INFO] [aspectj:compile {execution: default}]
  [WARNING] bad version number found in aspectjrt-1.6.8.jar expected
  1.5.4
 found 1.6.8
  ERROR] ABORT

The cause of the issue is that the plugin is defaulting to the 1.5.4
tools, which is easily solved, by adding the aspectjtools:1.6.8.
