Something like the AspectJ compiler API would be nice. It's just a
simple Java class that allows you to set the sourceroots as a standard
classpath looking string (/home/jason/source;/home/bob/source or
/home/jason/source:/home/bob/source) or the individual files. It
basically leaves it up to you how you get those files. As a result it
took me only a few minutes to make an AspectJ compiler plugin component
(for maven-new).
