I'm not sure whether aopc would work for my situation.  I'm using IBM's web 
services implementation for WebSphere, which include a bunch of closed source 
classes.  Those classes are the ones I want to do the instrumentation on.

I didn't try it with jboss-aop, but I tried to instrument the classes with 
aspectj and it seemed to have some issues getting at those classes or at least 
it being difficult to get it to do so.  With aopc would it recompile the 
appropriate classes in those jar files to something new?  I'd need to then 
determine what changed and make sure pathing is correct for the classloaders 
involved.

Sorry my understanding is just starting to grow about the innerworkings of 
classloaders, compilers and the other tools used internally to AOP 
implementations.  Now that I understand javassist's role with jboss-aop a 
little better and how it is able to alter the actual bytecode, I'm wondering if 
aopc would be a possibility.  

The loadtime transformations would be handy though.  I'm in early phases of 
using aop, mostly for debugging and logging while I'm developing and just 
making a quick change to an xml file for some reason seems much more appealing 
than having to recompile all of the classes everytime I want to change a 
pointcut.

Like I said before I'd be happy to do what I can to get this working.

Thanks,

Tom
