RE: [aspectj-users] AspectJ in WAR files

["Ron Bodkin" <rbodkin@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

In particular, remember that Tomcat uses a hierarchy of classloaders (as I recall JBoss uses Tomcat as its Web container). I put a copy of aspectjrt.jar in my %TOMCAT_HOME%/common/lib directory to make AspectJ available to all my Web apps. 

I assume you're precompiling your JSPs. I have been able to integrate with the Tomcat JSP compiler so it dynamically compiles aspects into my JSPs; the 1.1.1 release will include support for the ant adapter that lets you configure this. When it's out I can post a short how to note for those interested...
