Maven/AJDT project in Eclipse

I need to use aspectj in a maven project. I installed the maven plugin for eclipse (m2e), the maven aspectj plugin, and also AJDT for Eclipse. So now, when i open a new project i have "Maven Project" and "AspectJ Project". how can i make a new project that is Maven AspectJ project? I did not found any reference for that, so you are my only hope. thanks

If you have the aspectj-maven-plugin in your pom.xml you'll get one missing m2e connector :

        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
            <artifactId>aspectj-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>1.11</version>
            <configuration>
                <includes>
                    <include>**/*aj</include>
                    <include>**/*java</include>
                </includes>
                <Xlint>ignore</Xlint>
                <source>1.8</source>
                <target>1.8</target>
                <complianceLevel>1.8</complianceLevel>
                <showWeaveInfo>true</showWeaveInfo>
                <weaveDependencies>
                    <weaveDependency>
                        <groupId>org.perf4j</groupId>
                        <artifactId>perf4j</artifactId>
                        <classifier>log4jonly</classifier>
                    </weaveDependency>
                </weaveDependencies>
            </configuration>
            <executions>
                <execution>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>compile</goal>
                    </goals>
                </execution>
            </executions>
        </plugin>

I had to install m2e AJDT maven plugin configurator in eclipse but it did not work at first because I had missing dependencies. So to start install the AJDT tool available on this site : http://download.eclipse.org/tools/ajdt/48/dev/update/
Restart eclipse and then the install of m2e AJDT maven plugin configurator should work. After a new restart you should have eclipse available to build your aspectj classes.

You should add the maven-aspectj-plugin to your build plugins section in your pom.xml as in:

  <plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>aspectj-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <executions>
      <execution>
        <goals>
          <!-- use this goal to weave all your main classes -->
          <goal>compile</goal>
        </goals>
      </execution>
    </executions>
    <configuration>
      <complianceLevel>1.6</complianceLevel>
    </configuration>
  </plugin>

  1. Firstly we need to make sure AJDT (AspectJ development tools) is installed for eclipse. Check out the latest or appropriate version of AJDT for your Eclipse. (http://www.eclipse.org/ajdt/)
  2. Secondly install "AJDT m2e Configurator" using this repository http://dist.springsource.org/release/AJDT/configurator/ (As Hendy described above).
  3. If you have previously installed m2eclipse, you need to uninstall it before performing step 2.

  1. Go to Help > Install New Software...
  2. Use this software repository: http://dist.springsource.org/release/AJDT/configurator/
  3. Install the AJDT m2e Configurator

Check AJDT project configurator for m2eclipse

The m2eclipse-AJDT plugin detect that the pom.xml contains the aspectj-maven-plugin and add automatically the relevant AJDT nature and configuration to the project when importing it in eclipse.

I think some effort have bean made for the plugin to work with version 0.12 of m2eclipse , dont know if it's worked.

I already try the plugin with m2eclipse 0.10 and it worked well.

See GitHub m2eclipse-ajdt project
See Move AJDT integration out of main m2e source tree

You will have to add the relevant project facets to your project configuration in eclipse after adding the AspectJ support in your maven pom.xml.
