Thank you so much for that information, dean! I still a little difficulty figuring out how this would work. Here is the scenario: I have a Java project. I do not have the sources, i only have the jar. I would like to weave aspects into this. I create an aspectJ project and define the aspects i want. I add the Java jar in the inpath of the aspectJ project.
Now: 1. How do i execute the aspectJ project without a 'main' class? If i have to specify the 'main' class, what do i do in the main class? 2. How does it all work? If i execute the jar file, how are the aspects weaved in? How is the jar aware of the aspects? Maybe i am missing something extremely simple here, but i am unable to figure out how this whole setting would function. Thanks in advance, Anirudh On 5/21/07, Dean Wampler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Yes, use the "-inpath" option for ajc to specify the jars you want to "weave". Here's a good blog on the different path options. http://www.aspectprogrammer.org/blogs/adrian/2004/10/three_paths_sta.html dean On May 21, 2007, at 6:05 AM, Anirudh Chandrakant wrote: Hi, I am a new entrant into the aspectJ world and i am enjoying the ride so far. I have used aspectJ with an existing project and it works as desired. Now, if i have a Java project but i do not have the source files (i only have the jar), can i still use aspectJ? (I know the signatures of all the methods that i want to insert my pointcuts into) The demo shows conversion of a normal project into an aspectJ project (in a step similar to instrumentation), i was wondering if this was possible with packaged classes.
