Now that I've moved the aop classes out of the microcontainer bootstrap in jboss-head its showing we need to revisit the aop integration with the MC and JBossXB. The problem is that neither of the factory settings that sets up this integration can see the aop classes so the configuration is not done. I'm not sure what state aop and aop-mc-int are in, so I didn't want to update the snapshots for these. Instead I've hacked a horrible class that redoes the integration work: https://svn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/trunk/system/src/main/org/jboss/aop/d... This obviously needs fixing to do be done in a more reasonable way. ;-) View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4074094#...
