I've been implementing an Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) profiling and timing system on some of my web application code. I've been able to Load Time Weave (LTW) my application code using plain Apache Tomcat by placing the following AOP configuration file in WEB- INF/classes/META-INF/aop.xml:

<!DOCTYPE aspectj PUBLIC "-//AspectJ//DTD//EN" "http://www.eclipse.org/aspectj/dtd/aspectj.dtd ">
<aspectj>
   <weaver options="-verbose -showWeaveInfo">           
       <!-- Weave classes in our application-specific packages -->
       <include within="com.mycompany.myapp..*"/>
   </weaver>

   <aspects>
        <aspect name="com.mycompany.myapp.PointcutDefs"/>
        <aspect name="com.mycompany.myapp.ProfilingAspect"/>
   </aspects>
</aspectj>

However, when I try the same operation in Geronimo 1.1.1 (J2EE version with Tomcat), I do not see the weaver weaving, nor do I catch any of the application code with the pointcuts or the aspects.

I assume you're using G 1.1.1 for a reason. Have you tried 2.1.4?

You must be doing more than simply creating an aop.xml file. Otherwise, how is AspectJ getting loaded/triggered to read the configuration file?


Have other people tried AOP with Geronimo? Have they been successful load time weaving with such a configuration file? Pointers to any AOP examples with Geronimo are appreciated.

Maybe others who have used it. I've never tried it. But interested to see it running. Even more interested to see it on G 2.1.4 :-P, but happy to help with 1.1.1, also...

Prolly best to follow up on our user@ list...
