Hi Kurt. Actually I never tried to build AspectJ by myself, but got curious because of your inquiry. I just gave it a try after I found http://git.eclipse.org/c/aspectj/org.aspectj.git/. What I did was: - git clone git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/aspectj/org.aspectj.git - Rename org.aspectj/build/sample.local.properties to org.aspectj/build/local.properties - Import Eclipse project from org.aspectj/build/ without copying anything, just referencing the cloned repo. - Run org.aspectj/build/build.xml as Ant build. - Find build artifacts in folder org.aspectj/aj-build/dist/tools/lib/
It was much easier than I thought. There is a little how-to at http://git.eclipse.org/c/aspectj/org.aspectj.git/plain/build/readme-build-and-test-aspectj.html - enjoy! -- Alexander Kriegisch http://scrum-master.de ----- Original Message ----- From: kurt.peterschm...@pearson.com To: aspectj-users@eclipse.org Date: 11.07.2013 18:38:30 Subject: Re: [aspectj-users] Development build updates > Yes, we tried the 1.7.3 release.
