# Chapter 3. AspectJ Browser

## Introduction

AJBrowser presents a GUI for compiling programs with ajc and navigating crosscutting structure.

The AspectJ Browser can edit program source files, compile using the AspectJ compiler `ajc` run a program, and graphically navigate the program's crosscutting structure. For more information on `ajc`, see The ajc Command-line Reference.

Launch the browser from the command line either by typing "ajbrowser" to invoke the script in `{aspectj}/bin` (if AspectJ is installed correctly) or by using the `aspectjtools.jar` directly, and specifying no arguments or some number of build configuration files (suffix `.lst`):

      java -jar aspectj1.1/lib/aspectjtools.jar aspectj1.1/doc/examples/spacewar/debug.lst
