Compile error if inheriting aspect has `@Override` in test src

[stendler]

Possibly related to mojohaus/aspectj-maven-plugin#222 (now #338).

Problem

If an inheriting aspect declares @Override on a method/pointcut it overrides and is in src/test or in a different module importing the parent from a library, the compiler errors (during test-compile and compile respectively):

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.13.0:compile (default-compile) 
  on project aspect-override-method-from-module: Compilation failure
[ERROR] /home/runner/work/aspectj-issue-reproducers/aspectj-issue-reproducers/issue-override-method
  /aspect-override-method-from-module/src/main/java/com/example/InheritingAspectInOtherModule.java:[9,5] 
  method does not override or implement a method from a supertype

If the same inheriting aspect is in src/main, it compiles without error.

Code

Example project: https://github.com/stendler/aspectj-issue-reproducers/tree/main/issue-override-method
GitHub action with the error message: https://github.com/stendler/aspectj-issue-reproducers/actions/runs/14665672762/job/41159742585#step:4:1132

Parent aspect:

package com.example;  
  
import org.aspectj.lang.ProceedingJoinPoint;  
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Around;  
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Aspect;  
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Pointcut;  
  
@Aspect  
public abstract class AbstractAspect {  

    @Pointcut  
    public abstract void pointCut();  
  
    @Around("isEnabled() && pointCut()")  
    public Object around(ProceedingJoinPoint joinPoint) throws Throwable {  
        System.out.println("advising...");  
        var ret = joinPoint.proceed();  
        System.out.println("advised!");  
        return ret;  
    }  
  
}

Inheriting aspect:

package com.example;  
  
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Aspect;  
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Pointcut;  
  
@Aspect  
public class InheritingAspectInTest extends AbstractAspect {  
  
    @Override
    @Pointcut("!cflow(adviceexecution()) && call(* com.example..*(..))")  
    public void pointCut() {};  
  
}

Workaround

Remove the @Override annotation

Small correction: As explained in #338, this has nothing to do with test vs. main sources or modules/libraries as such, but in AspectJ terms is related to binary weaving. Your sample scenarios use binary weaving, which is why they reproduce the problem.
