When I reread the doc and actually followed the link to the "Annotation Bindings" chapter I figured that was it. ;) But this is confusing: "aopclasspath - This should mirror your class path and contain all JARs/directories..." The "mirror class path" thing threw me off, as to me "mirror" implies "duplicate". Perhaps "aopclasspath -- A subset of the JARs/directories in classpath or classpathref that includes all JARs/directories that may have annotated aspects (See Chapter "Annotation Bindings"). The AOPC compiler will browse each class file in this path to determine if any of them are annotated with @Aspect. Browsing for annotations is time consuming, so only classes in the JARs/directories listed in aopclasspath will be scanned." The next sentence "This gets used for the jboss.aop.class.path optional system property which is described in the "Command Line" section." is really confusing. Is it necessary? (No need to reply to that question. Or to any of this :) ) Yeah, it's pretty clear what it is and how to use it (other than the docs should say "A directory containing class files to be transformed", not just "containing files". There's just a mental disconnect because of the name that I expect affects people looking at the PojoCache examples. Yep, you can have multiple src entries. You've got includes as well; it's just that for some reason they are at the same level as src rather than being nested.
