Including AspectJ Breaks Kotlin Project

1

The thread AOP and Kotlin got me interested in AOP. I tried creating an example project using AspectJ. However, once I include AspectJ, none of my classes are found. In fact, removing AspectJ still does not remove my broken build.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a new Maven project without archetype.
  2. Enable auto-import
  3. Add Framework Support for Kotlin (Java)
  4. Create a simple main File


fun main(args : Array<String>) {
    println("Hello, world.")
}

  5. Add AspectJ via Maven as follows: 

<properties>
    <aspectj.version>1.7.3</aspectj.version>
</properties>



<dependencies>

    <!-- AOP –>

    <dependency>

        <groupId>org.aspectj</groupId>

        <artifactId>aspectjrt</artifactId>

        <version>${aspectj.version}</version>

    </dependency>

</dependencies>


<build>

    <plugins>

        <plugin>

            <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>

            <artifactId>aspectj-maven-plugin</artifactId>

            <version>1.5</version>

            <executions>

                <execution>

                    <goals>

                        <goal>compile</goal>

                        <goal>test-compile</goal>

                    </goals>

                </execution>

            </executions>

        </plugin>

    </plugins>

</build>


  6. Verify the Facet for AspectJ has been automatically detected.
  7. Run and verify that a NoClassDefException is thrown.

From here I tried to reverse the broken build by:

  1. Removing AspectJ from my Maven and from my Facets
  2. Rebuild and make the project

I’m using IntelliJ 13 with Kotlin plugin 0.6.1617 and my project is configured with JDK 7 and enabled Java 7 features.

I have attached a project at step 7 of the above error scenario. I would appreciate every help in getting my build to work again and solutions to working with AspectJ and Kotlin.

Cheers,

Christian

Works for me, AspectJ support disabled
