[jira] Commented: (MECLIPSE-270) Add support for classpathentry attributes

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-270?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_127137 ] 

Christian Hall commented on MECLIPSE-270:
-----------------------------------------

Can someone outline what it would take to fix this issue? Is it something that someone new to the source code could create a patch for? 

This feature is pretty critical if components are dependent on externally compiled aspects in the maven repo. I know very little about the M2Eclipse support as well, but I would think in adding this feature it would be good to make sure it works for that aspect of the plug-in as well.

I'd be happy to look into this if I can carve out some time, but I don't know what I am offering having not seen the code base. If there is some way for a newbie to help with this, let me know.

> With eclipse 3.3 and AJDT 1.5 aspect jars are now configured as an attribute nested inside of the .classpath file's <classpathentry> element Like so:
> <classpathentry kind="var" path="M2_REPO/org/springframework/spring-aspects/2.0.5/spring-aspects-2.0.5.jar" sourcepath="M2_REPO/org/springframework/spring-aspects/2.0.5/spring-aspects-2.0.5-sources.jar">
> 	<attributes>
> 		<attribute name="org.eclipse.ajdt.aspectpath" value="true"/>
> 	</attributes>
> </classpathentry>
> It would be nice if it were possible to add attributes to classpathentry's with some kind of configuration syntax where maybe the dependency artifact and group are specified and then the attributes for that dependency.
