Hello,

With JvmTypes, Xtext provides a way to let textual DSLs refer to Java code elements. At first, thanks a lot for this great new feature.

When using JvmTypes, their members currently do not include those which are introduced by AspectJ inter-type declarations (ITD), at least not in the IDE. (In standalone mode, those members are discovered, since they are woven into the byte code and thus seen by reflection).

It would be nice if JvmTypes were integrated with AJDT in such a way, that ITDs are taken into account.


This would for instance allow to write textual DSLs for Spring Roo based projects, which makes excessive use of ITDs.

Best Regards,
Stefan Ocke.
