Has anybody succeeded in using JBoss AOP in Tomcat?

HI, I'm failing to deploy my application using JBoss AOP within a Apache Tomcat 6.0.16 server.

I'm using the VM arg

-Djava.system.class.loader=org.jboss.aop.standalone.SystemClassLoader

I also have added the jboss aop jars to the classpath.

The server and the webapp is starting but I'm getting this error:

INFO: Unknown loader org.jboss.aop.standalone.SystemClassLoader@923e30 class org.jboss.aop.standalone.SystemClassLoader

In consequence Jboss aop is not working.

By accident I found this link: http://74.125.77.132/search?q=cache:xmIPvJaB7mEJ:mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/tomcat-dev/200208.mbox/%253C20020822170212.55248.qmail%40icarus.apache.org%253E+tomcat+%22Unkown+loader%22&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=at

In this code segment I found my error message which is printed when the loader is no URLClassLoader.

if (!(loader instanceof URLClassLoader)) + if (!(loader instanceof URLClassLoader)) { + String cp=getClasspath( loader ); + if( cp开发者_如何转开发==null ) { + log.info( "Unknown loader " + loader + " " + loader.getClass());

I'm not sure if that's the reason for the problem but it may be.

Does anyone have a hint for me how to make this work? Is JBoss AOP simply not working with Tomcat standalone (Using JBoss is not an option at the moment).

Thanks!

You may be able to start tomcat normally and then, on the threads you want jboss AOP, set their context classloader to org.jboss.aop.standalone.SystemClassLoader
