Hello Andrew and Aspectj community,
Thank you very much for the reply. well let me try to explain the problem
again. First of all the classes and aspects are there in the project. all i
need to do is to read the aspects (.aj files) to find out what java classes
or aspects are affected by any particular aspect

 for example
In the earlier example i mentioned I have A.java and B.java. I made an
aspect C.aj,which actually checks that if both A.java and B.java are running
than modify A.java  or B.java so that both can actually run together. So I
actually want to know which Java class function (A.java and B.java) is
extended by C.aj

Iets say I have aspect implements "requiredActivation" dependency between
part

@activation dependency
 * When Hex is selected, the logical operators can be active

"privileged aspect HexPanel_LogicalOp {
    before(HexPanel panel) :
        execution(* setButtons()) && this(panel) {
        panel.buttons.elementAt(4).setPObject(new And());
        panel.buttons.elementAt(9).setPObject(new Or());
        panel.buttons.elementAt(14).setPObject(new Xor());
    }
}
"
The above mention aspect code is that this aspect advises
HexPanel.setbuttons. I want to know this information "This aspect requires
HexPanel so that logical operations can be activated". This aspect calls
HexPanel and add some functionality to it (add buttons) so that logical
operation can be performed.

I hope i make you understand. All i want to traverse aspects present in the
AspectJ project and find out calls to other .aj or .java files.

How can i proceed with it?

Best regards

 Saad
