I would like to weave an aspectj into an existing plugin of elipse-based RCP program.
I don't have the source code of the plugin and what my aspectj want to do is to print a log when executing a specific method in the target plugin.
Below is what my steps, however it doesn't work, Could you someone suggest how to achive it.
1) I downloaded AJDT plugin in my Eclipse and create my AspectJ progect including my aspect file.
2) In the AspectJ project properties, specify the target plugin name in the "Inppath" . Here , Let's say the target plugin name is AAAA_1.0.jar and specify the same name mytest_1.0.jar in the "Output" jar.
3) Build the my aspectj project, and get the new AAAA_1.0.jar with my aspectj included.
4) Then I modify the MANIFEST.MF of AAAA_1.0.jar, add the "org.aspectj.runtime" into the "Require Bundle".
5) Then I replace the AAAA_1.0.jar of the RCP program with the new created one.
6) copy the <My Eclipse Installation Folder>/plugins/org.aspectj.*.jar into <My RCP>/plugins/
7) copy the <My Eclipse Installation Folder>/features/org.aspectj_1.8.5.20150128171000 into <My RCP>/features/
8) copy all aspectj related entries defined in the <My Eclipse Installation Folder>/artifacts.xml ino my <My RCP>/artifacts.xml
9) then run my RCP, However my aspect doesn't work and RCP prints the error :
Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/aspectj/lang/NoAspectBoundException

It seems org.aspectj.runtime can't be found. Any advice how to solve it?
Or is there any guide if I want to add a aspectj into a exsisting plugin which has no source code?
Best Regards
Bruce
