[aspectj-users] @AfterThrowing problem

[Sina <my.linked.account@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there,

I'm trying to use the @AfterThrowing in order to define my pointcut like this: 

 @AfterThrowing(throwing = "e")

    public void bizLoggerWithException(BizLoggable logData, JoinPoint

    thisJoinPoint,Throwable e) {

    .....// do some stuff

    }

But I get the following error from Eclipse (oepe 12.1.1.0.0):

java.lang.NullPointerException

at org.aspectj.weaver.patterns.BasicTokenSource.makeTokenSource(BasicTokenSource.java:84)

at org.aspectj.weaver.patterns.PatternParser.<init>(PatternParser.java:1884)

at org.aspectj.ajdt.internal.compiler.ast.ValidateAtAspectJAnnotationsVisitor.resolveAndSetPointcut(ValidateAtAspectJAnnotationsVisitor.java:388)

at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.Worker.run(Worker.java:54)

Compile error: NullPointerException thrown: null

Previously I got another error like this: insert the quotation mark after 'e'   or something like that, tough that my syntax was correct. 

Does anyone know how to conquer this bug?

I can define this pointcut and the regarding advice without @AfterThrowing annotation, but I', trying to stick with the annotations ....

Cheers,

Sina
