[aspectj-users] AspectJ 1.5 aop.xml question

[Nathan McEachen <nathan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a question about load-time weaving in AspectJ.  According to the 
AspectJ 5 Development Kit Developer's Notebook,  the <aspects> element 
can have an <include within="[pattern]"> child element  
(http://eclipse.org/aspectj/doc/next/adk15notebook/ltw-configuration.html).

However, when I include that element as a child to the <aspects> element 
in my aop.xml file, I get a SAX exception:

org.xml.sax.SAXException: Unknown element while parsing <aspectj> 
element: include


Is the <include> element currently supported within the <aspects> 
element?  Or do I have to explicitly list every aspect I want woven at 
load time using an <aspect name="..."> for each aspect?  Basically I do 
not wish to explicitly ennumerate every aspect in the aop.xml file for 
the load-time weaver.  Rather, I want to use a wildcard pattern to 
capture them all.

Thanks,

-Nathan
