Spring Roo & Java 1.7

[xmaniac]

I've tried to upgrade my Roo project to the latest JDK version but I'm getting several errors. All of the same kind:

declare @type is only supported at Java 5 compliance level or above

Something related to the AspectJ it seems but the project won't compile. Any workaround or idea?

If you have the value of "1.7" in the <source> and <target> values in the <configuration> section of the aspectj-maven-plugin, then change it to 1.6. When a new Roo project is created these values get the Java version that Roo is started with. It appears the plugin cannot handle JDK 7 yet. I will follow this up with the AspectJ guys.
