AJDT 2.1.1 Released

I am pleased to announce the release of AJDT 2.1.1. In this release, we have focussed on AspectJ-aware searching and refactoring. This release also includes AspectJ 1.6.10.

Please see the New & Noteworthy for more details, including a list of refactorings that are currently known to work in AspectJ files.

AJDT 2.1.1 will be available in the upcoming SpringSource Tool Suite 2.5.0 release, or you can install it from one of the following update sites:

More on Groovy-Eclipse and Maven

I've had a few requests for the source code for the Groovy-Eclipse integration for maven, as well as a sample project that uses it. You can get both the sample project and groovy-eclipse compiler plugin for maven.

They are packaged as two m2eclipse projects, and it is recommended (although not necessary) to import them into Eclipse to use them.

The groovy-eclipse-compiler project contains the compiler integration. It is a single Java class that calls into the Groovy-enhanced JDT compiler. This maven plugin uses plexus to hook into maven's compiler plugin.

The groovy-eclipse-maven-tests project is a very simple maven project that has a few Groovy and Java classes that interact with each other. If you want to create your own project using the Groovy-Eclipse maven integration, I would recommend starting with this sample project.

Please let me know if you have any problems.
