Re: [aspectj-users] Need some emergency Help with AspectJ PLEASE !!!

["Ron Bodkin" <rbodkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Try compiling your aspect into a jar with ajc -outjar foo.jar ..., and then using this jar as an input to compiling your other projects with ajc -aspectpath foo.jar ...

Take a look at the online docs for more details on outjar and aspectpath
