Re: [aspectj-users] AJDT configurator for m2e

[Andrew Eisenberg <andrew@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The outxml line causes the compiler to create the aop.xml file
automatically during the compile.  This file is required for load-time
weaving so that the weaver knows where to find aspects at load time.
See more information here:
http://www.eclipse.org/aspectj/doc/released/devguide/ltw-configuration.html

This file is not required for compile time weaving.

As for changing the way that the AJDT configurator works, that
wouldn't be a recommended way of doing things.  When using m2eclipse,
classpath management of your project is delegated to m2eclipse.  This
ensures, for example, that if you remove the aspectj maven plugin from
your pom, then your eclipse classpath is automatically updated to
reflect that.  This wouldn't be possible unless m2eclipse had full
control over the classpath and delegated properly to configurators
(like the ajdt configurator) where appropriate.
