Re: [aspectj-users] Activing / de-activing aspectjweaver agent without s

["Andy Clement" <andrew.clement@xxxxxxxxx>]

So you want to change what is going to be woven without getting rid of the classloader (which would cause the lt weaver to be discarded).
I vaguely recall something like this being discussed a long time ago.  Adding new aspects does not seem unreasonable, but it will only
affect classes loaded after the reinitialize.  Removing aspects, well you'd need to be careful and sure that classes loaded post-initialize
won't have problems working with classes loaded earlier that had been woven.

Feel free to open an enhancement request but I'd need to see some good use cases before adding the capability.  I would hate to
get in lots of bug reports because this feature had been used incorrectly...

Hi all,

Activing / de-activing aspectjweaver LTW agent without stopping the JVM ?

A similar question, but not exactly the same, was asked few days ago.

 

It seems it is not possible today with the version 1.6.x of Aspectj.

 

Does the modification of the agent would be heavy to have the features described below:

- stopping agent aspectjweaver by sending a signal on the pid of the java process  and catching it ( we can do it, for example  with the non-documented classes sun…)

- modifying the aop.xml file configuration ( scope of the concrete  aspects, add new aspects …)

- starting the agent with the new aop.xml by sending the same signal or another

 

See JIProf  profiler project. It does the start and stop for its agent (http://sourceforge.net/projects/jiprof/)

 

 

Does it only a dream ? ;-)

 

Cordialement / Best regards
