Hi Kabir, thanks, solved. I didn't realize that JBoss AOP differs from Spring AOP in the principles - not a proxy-based AOP, thus it needs either compile-time weaving or the JVM -javaagent. I ran into an issue with compile time weaving: It does not understand the document (with namespaced AOP delements): java.lang.Ille­galArgumentEx­ception: Unknown AOP tag: bean Is there a way to have just one config file and use it with the maven AOP plugin?
