This isn’t
as easy as it should be… you need to change settings in two places to switch a
project into incremental compilation mode:
First open
Window->Preferences->AspectJ and deselect “suppress automatic builds for
AspectJ projects.” This option was enabled by default to prevent long delays
due to non-incremental compilation occurring whenever you save a resource.
At this
stage, a full-build will be kicked off every time you save a resource in the
project. Open the properties for your project using the context menu in the
Package Explorer. Select the AspectJ tab and then select “Use Incremental
Compilation.”
Crosscutting
structure information in the outline view is not preserved for an incremental
build. Use the normal AspectJ build
button to kick off a full build when you need to see the relationship
information. This restriction will be removed in a forthcoming release.
