| Creating an AspectJ plug-in project |
| </h1> |
| <p>In the workspace, a plug-in is represented by a single project that has a |
| plugin.xml (manifest) file at its root and that encapsulates all the code and |
| resources of the plug-in. An AspectJ plug-in project will have AspectJ nature, |
| will be build by the AspectJ builder and will normally depend on the AspectJ |
| runtime plug-in</p> |
| <p>To create a plug-in project, bring up the New Plug-in Project creation wizard |
| via <b>File > New > Plug-in Project</b>.</p> |
| <p>A plug-in project can either be created as a Java project or a |
| simple project. When creating an AspectJ plug-in project you must initially |
| create a Java plug-in project.</p> |
| <p>Complete the new plug-in wizard with the required details. Please see the PDE guide for more information |
| on creating plug-in projects.</p> |
| <p>When you have created your plug-in, right click on the project in the package explorer |
| and select <strong>Convert to AspectJ project</strong>. You will be asked |
| whether you want to add the AspectJ runtime plug-in, org.aspectj.runtime as a plug-in |
| dependency. Select <strong>Yes</strong>. You have now created an AspectJ plug-in project</p> |
