Ok, I deployed docs\aspect-framework\examples\injboss example using deploy-basic-lt-war. When I bring up index.jsp I get the following the errors below indicating the SimpleInterceptor class cannot be found even though I can look at the jar inside the war and can see the class. At any rate, it appears that jboss is trying to at least apply the aop. I have AspectManager verbose set to true. I understand that this is supposed to output info when aop is applied. When I deploy my jars that use the aop, there is absolutely no output. I don't think jboss is applying the aop in the code I am deploying (in that I see that there is output in the errors regarding joinpoints). I really appreciate your help as I have trying to resolve this issue for a couple days and cannot determine I am doing wrong. I have a JobFlow.jar that includes: - JobFlow.java - JobFlowAspect.java - A few additional classes the aspect uses I have a jboss-aop.xml that indicates to call the JobFlowAspect whenever the JobFlow annotation is used on a method I have another jar that includes a classes that use the JobFlow annotation on the method. I deployed the JobFlow.jar and jboss-aop.xml to farm, then I deploy the jars that use the annotation. When I deploy the jars that use the annotation there is no output that the aspect is being applied. | Here is the JobFlow and JobFlowAspect (Note that I deleted most of the logic in the aspect class for brevity sake). I also tried annotations instead of jboss-aop.xml, but that did not work either. | | | Here is JobFlow.java | | @Target({ElementType.METHOD}) | @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME) | public @interface JobFlow {} | | | Here is JobFlowAspect.java | //@Aspect(scope = Scope.PER_VM) | public class JobFlowAspect | { | | private static Logger log = Logger.getLogger(JobFlowAspect.class); | //@Bind(pointcut="execution(* *->@com.jpmc.etl.jobflow.aspect.JobFlow(..))") | | public Object executeFlow(MethodInvocation invocation) throws Throwable | { | | try | { | System.out.println("JobFlowAspect: Calling method " + invocation.getMethod().getName()); | | return invocation.invokeNext(); | } | finally | { | | | System.out.println("JobFlowAspect: Done"); | | } | } | } | | =========== Here is the output I get from deploying the injboss example ==== org.apache.jasper.JasperException: An exception occurred processing JSP page /index.jsp at line 7 root cause java.lang.RuntimeException: Error generating joinpoint class for joinpoint Method[method=public java.lang.String org.jboss.injbossaop.lib.ExampleValue.getMessage()] java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.jboss.injbossaop.lib.SimpleInterceptor View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4251309#...
