Found by user in bug 341926 - seems like we have problems with it rather than passing it through to the eclipse compiler.

It doens't look to be fixed in AspectJ compiler 1.7.1 as well.

Still happening with AspectJ Compiler 1.8.2

Comment 3 Andrew Clement

I did some archeology on this. This feature was always handled by the Eclipse Java Compiler, not by AspectJ.  At some point it was removed by eclipse and so we no longer had the feature either.  This seems to have happened with commit 4193bdf (made 11 years ago!). According to the commit comment:

import problem is no longer configurable (now error)

This seems to have been done because it is a spec compliance issue and the spec specifies this kind of problem is always an error.
