I guess it is the old adage that if it isn't tested it doesn't work. We
have no tests for repeatable in the current test suite. I knew we had no
'proper' support in the AspectJ language (i.e. pointcuts are not aware of
repeatable annotations that have been packed into a separate annotation),
but I kind of hoped the basic use of them would work because it behaves in
JDT. Guess not. Please raise an AspectJ bugzilla for this.
cheers
