If javassist is on the classpath these values can be read. Since the container jars are in jboss/lib: | a) We need to move javassist from jboss/server/xxx/lib to jboss/lib so that the mc classloader can see javassist | OR | b) I could do something similar to what I have done for the other AOP integration and do a check for when javassist has been deployed. | | I will look into b), but for now you should be able to make progress with a) (which is what we might end up with anyway :-) I have taken the easiest path and committed option a): moving javassist.jar into jboss/lib. There is a test in the testsuite that verifies the behaviour. | Kabir@KabirDell ~/sourcecontrol/jboss-head/testsuite | $ build.sh one-test -Dtest=org.jboss.test.aop.test.MicrocontainerDefaultAnnotationUnitTestCase | Scott, you mentioned something early in the other thread about moving javassist.jar here. Can you elaborate a bit please. At the moment I don't see a way to go with option b) short of moving the javassist specific annotation stuff out of the mc project into the aop-mc-int project, or splitting jboss-container.jar into a jboss-container-boot.jar and a jboss-container-deployer.jar as has been done for the aop-mc-int project.
