Hi Andy, Your reply just came in as I was writing my addendum. I ran across the following post on SO that could hopefully help ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6107197/how-does-lombok-work).
Lombok codes against a) internal javac apis and b) internal eclipse apis (in a separate processor). JSR 269 does not let you modify existing source code, but when you cast an Element <http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/lang/model/element/Element.html> to the underlying AST node, you can actually modify the AST (which is what project Lombok does). I'm not entirely sure how much ajc deviates from ejc. Have you just renamed all the packages to be org.aspectj? Where would I find the sources for EJC to see how much/where AJC deviates?
