Hi Eric, I usually do not disable Maven Compiler, I just configure it and AspectJ Maven in a way so as not to interfere with each other. Let me know if you are interested. But of course disabling Maven Compiler completely is a safe bet for that kind of problem, too.
As for your JEE/CDI problem: I am not a framework guy, I neither use Spring nor JEE, mostly because programming is not my job (used to be 20 years ago) and I just do it for fun. So maybe I am not the most qualified person to answer that. But generally speaking, you already kinda nailed it: Aspect lifecycle is handled by AJ, not via CDI. And frankly, I even think it shouldn't. We have a bit of a hen and egg problem here, if you think about it. AOP is meant to implement cross-cutting concerns, i.e. AOP needs "to be there first", especially when thinking about AspectJ doing bytecode weaving during class-loading, which is what you essentially do with LTW. So the weaving agent needs to be up and running before any of the application classes are even loaded into the JVM. Spring AOP is a different kind of beast because it uses delegation via dynamic proxies, not bytecode weaving. Furthermore, a Spring aspect is also a Spring component and only works for other Spring components, i.e. there i s a strong dependency on the surrounding framework. Maybe there is a way to get CDI working for aspects, but if there is, then only in some kind of "lazy instantiation" scenario, i.e. aspect weaving and class-loading is finished but DI into the aspect is only done later, e.g. when the aspect first accesses the injected object. To me this feels a little creepy though because suddenly the aspect would depend on the application and you could run into issues with aspects that ought to be kicking in early, such as logging or tracing. For aspects which are designed to only be used after the application is already wired up, you might have a chance. Someone else might be able to help you there. Does it work for you if you ask some kind of factory to provide you with a dependency? I know, it is not DI and more difficult to test, but you can still provide setters for the aspect's dependencies and then easily unit-test the aspect, injecting mocks.
