AspectJ projects

An AspectJ project contains source code and related files for building an AspectJ program. It has an associated AspectJ builder that can incrementally compile Java and AspectJ source files as they are changed.

A Java project maintains a model of its contents that is constantly updated as the user changes the Java source code. AspectJ projects are an extension to Java projects and so they also have such a model, as well as making available all the functions and features that you can use with Java projects in Eclipse.

An AspectJ project also maintains a model of its crosscutting information. This model is updated every time the project is built.
