[aspectj-users] another 'noaspectboundexception: exception while initial

[Ashank <k_arvind_shankar@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All!

I am using LTW with AJ 1.6.9. I'm trying to instrument any interesting POJO
class in my web app and I wrote this pointcut for this (partial aspect
enclosed)
<snip>
package test;

public aspect POJOAspect extends GenericAspect{	
	public pointcut POJOPC() :
		!within(test.*) &&
		!execution(public new(..)) &&
        !(execution(* java..*(..)) || execution(java..new(..))) &&
        !(execution(native * *(..)) || execution(native new(..))) &&
		execution(public * *(..));
</snip>

GenericAspect is just an abstract dummy aspect that I use to do stuff for my
web app. All my aspects extend it. Some pointcuts in my aspect may be
redundant but I'm just pasting it here as they are in my code.

When I ran my web server, I get the following exception

org.aspectj.lang.NoAspectBoundException: Exception while initializing

I checked out a bunch of posts about noaspectboundexception and about cyclic
advising but don't know how I am facing that issue (if at all) when I am not
advising any class in the test package (where my POJOAspect resides). 
Please help!!!
Thank you very much
