Re: [aspectj-users] Load time weaving with maven and surefire fails

[Andy Clement <andrew.clement@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

There can be two main causes of this problem.

1) If you have used a more recent version of the weaver to build the
code than you use as your loadtime weaver (e.g. you use the latest
AJDT to build it which includes AspectJ 1.6.11, then weave it using an
old AspectJ 1.6.7 or something).  Ideally try to keep the levels in
step.  I don't think you've mentioned what versions of the weaver or
AJDT you are using.

2) If another bytecode modification tool is modifying the bytecode for
the aspect between AspectJ building it and the weaver trying to use
it, it can damage the structure and cause AspectJ to have problems
trying to decode some of the attributes.  You mentioned a coverage
tool and many of those work by bytecode modification rather than
source modification - I would try to ensure that the coverage tool
isn't instrumenting your aspect, if you can.  If you can't do that,
one option you have is to change your aspect to annotation style
rather than code style, and build it with javac - if it is built this
way it won't contain anything the secondary bytecode modification
could be damaging.
