Re: [aspectj-users] lauching applications from another one with load-tim

[Matthew Webster <matthew_webster@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Fabio,

Dynamic class loading is tricky. If
you combine that with LTW then things get tricker so I suggest you keep
it as simple as possible. May I ask what you are trying to do? There may
already be some tools that do it for you. Most importantly if you write
an aspect that targets a particular class, you generate an aop.xml file
for it (using -outxml), start the JVM with the AspectJ LTW agent and load
the class as you have described below then it will be woven.

Hi Matthew, 

   Ok ... but how to get this working?  I just can get this
working if I type: java -javaagent:xxx Test ... Therefore, I dont know
how to load the other application (e.g. from App1.main) using a separate
class loader ... :-( 

  Would you please send me some hints (piece of code)?

Thank you, 
Fabio

You may want to load you test application using a separate class loader,
with it's own classpath. As each class is loaded it will automatically
get passes to AspectJ.
