We?ve made some experiments, which made us believe that the problem is the fact that the same classes are being used as hibernate entities. As being part of our mapping, it may contain hibernate advisors and interceptor that may interfere with the new interceptor we were trying to add using the AOP xml. Any ideas of how to make them run along? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4095015#...
