[aspectj-users] aspectJ + tomcat5

["Pfundstein, Patrick" <Patrick.Pfundstein@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Title: Message

Hi!

 

I am trying to have aspectJ working with tomcat5 in order to use an aspect in a bean used in a JSP.

 

I have carefully followed the instructions at:

http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/indextech.cgi/~checkout~/aspectj-home/sample-code.html#j2ee-tomcat4-jsp

 

but when accessing the jsp, I am having the following error in tomcat's 5 log:

 

INFO: Server startup in 12619 ms
(compiler.Compiler                   394 ) Javac exception
require destDir for getting tag file directory

So how do you set up this destDir?

 

For some personal reasons, I would like to avoid to precompile the web application and would therefore like to stick with 'traditional' ie non compiled site.

 

Versions:

 

tomcat5.016

aspectJ1.1.1

java -version
java version "1.4.2"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2-b28)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-b28, mixed mode)

 

Thanks!
