My point was that so far Lift seems to be fine without it. When a problem crops up for which AOP appears to be the best or only solution, then it will be worth considering it. Until then, it is only change for change's sake, IMO, otherwise known as feature creep. I'm a fan of Occam: don't over

I think AspectJ compiler currently pukes on scala classes anyway (or at least it did when Miles set up aspectj as a workaround the Eclipse JDT). So... no dice for AspectJ + Scala without using a Java "glue" class. On Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 3:12 PM, Lee Mighdoll wrote: > Certainly, maintaining an a
