This has been fixed by https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=167824
in 3.2.2.  What version of Eclipse are you testing?  The correct
woven bytes are now passed to recordClassDefine.

Thank you Tom!

I should have talked to Martin :-)
I am using 3.2.2 but I took org.eclipse.osgi_3.2.0 from the Equinox Aspects CVS repository => I guess it should be deleted there!

That was nuber 1. But what about 2..4.?

2. I wonder if AspectJAdaptor.shouldWeave() ever returns false.
I checked with a modified implementation of AspectJHook (see 1.) where my caching seemed to work but after loading the woven class (from cache) sholdWeave() returned true. Is this magic method surely working correctly? Could anone please explain that "first four bytes logic" of shouldWeave() to me?

3. ICachingService.getInstance() and IWeavingService.getInstance() seem strange design to me. This is mixing of concerns. Once the caller (Activator of implementing bundles) expects the implementations to be singleton factories, and once something different. Why not refactor getInstance() to ServiceFactories and let only these ServiceFactories be OSGi services (singletons)?

4. The method ICachingService.hashNamespace() is never used externally, thus can be removed from the interface. Right?
