The aim was to install the AOP artifacts via MC beans rather than directly into the aspect manager as was the case previously. Locally, with my changes here I am able to get the full AOP testsuite passing. I have yet to try out ejb3-interceptors-aop.xml, which I will look at on Monday. | | Before I can upgrade AS trunk I need to do another AOP release, then we need a release of MC (aop-mc-int). Once upgraded in AS, and switched over to use the new deployers the following two things apply to all jboss-aop.xml files used in AS | | 1) The aop namespace must be defined, so the contents of the file must be as follows: | | | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | | <aop xmlns="urn:jboss:aop-beans:1.0"> | | ... | | </aop> | | | | 2) interceptors can only be defined at the top level. We don't support: | | | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | | <aop xmlns="urn:jboss:aop-beans:1.0"> | | <bind pointcut="all(@Test1)"> | | <interceptor class="MyInterceptor"/> | | </bind> | | <bind pointcut="all(@Test2)"> | | <interceptor class="MyInterceptor"/> | | </bind> | | </aop> | | | | instead you must use the alternative syntax (which is similar to how aspects/advice-bindings work) | | | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | | <aop xmlns="urn:jboss:aop-beans:1.0"> | | <interceptor class="MyInterceptor"/> | | <bind pointcut="all(@Test1)"> | | <interceptor-ref name="MyInterceptor"/> | | </bind> | | <bind pointcut="all(@Test2)"> | | <interceptor-ref name="MyInterceptor"/> | | </bind> | | </aop> | | | I have updated AS trunk to use this now. An additional constraint is now is that since everything maps onto MC beans in the background, names must be unique within a classloader domain. So, the following is not allowed | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | <aop xmlns="urn:jboss:aop-beans:1.0"> | <interceptor name="Blah" class="x"/> | <bind name="Blah" pointcut="..."> | <interceptor-ref name="Blah"/> | </bind> | </aop> | Since both the interceptor and the binding result in an underlying MCBean called "Blah". Duplicate bean names are not allowed within a controller. Rather you need to do | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | <aop xmlns="urn:jboss:aop-beans:1.0"> | <interceptor name="Blah" class="x"/> | <bind name="BlahBind" pointcut="..."> | <interceptor-ref name="Blah"/> | </bind> | </aop> | I ran the smoke and some other tests, but in case this breaks something unforeseen for somebody while I am out this evening, you can undo the changes by reverting https://svn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/trunk/server/src/etc/conf/default/dep... to revision 78640.
