Cannot force Intellij to use AspectJ compiler

Question

Everything I see on the Internet just says to select the "ajc" compiler from the list of compilers, but this is not an option for me. I have javac, jikes, eclipse and javac-in-process, but that.

How my project compiles from the command line with maven, but if I inject anything into an IDE that uses an aspect, I get compiler warnings.

Answer 1

Make sure the AspectJ Support plugin is enabled in Settings ( Preferences on Mac) | Plugins Follow the documentation for more details.

When using the proper Maven project, the ajc compiler is automatically turned on .

Answer 2

If you do not see this option, you may not be using the final edition.

This option is available only in the Ultimate Edition IntelliJ IDEA.
