problem with using pojo cache with other application server

[jasonhu919]

I was able to work out a standalone, simple Hello world of the pojo cache in netbeans. pretty easy and simple.
then I tried to make it work in oracle OC4J. I was not even able to start the server with javaagent option, I got this exception:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javassist/scopedpool/ScopedClassPoolFactory
at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredMethods0(Native Method)
at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredMethods(Class.java:2427)

at sun.instrument.InstrumentationImpl.loadClassAndStartAgent(InstrumentationImpl.java:294)
at sun.instrument.InstrumentationImpl.loadClassAndCallPremain(InstrumentationImpl.java:338)

I guess current aop imlementation can't tap into the oc4j classloader.
here is my simple start script

for i in /lib/*.jar
do
POJO_CLASSPATH="$POJO_CLASSPATH:${i}"
done
java -javaagent:/lib/jboss-aop.jar -Djboss.aop.path=/config/pojocache-aop.xml -classpath $POJO_CLASSPATH -jar oc4j.jar

update on my own issue.

I made it work with AOP precompilation instead of using javaagent.
of course, I had to get over some hurdles of the jar library issue in oc4j.

The above error means you are missing javassist.jar from the agent classpath, or some other jar it requires

[jasonhu919]

i knew the missing class it was complaining about is in javassist.jar file, and I made sure all the jars are in the classpath, that was the basic step everyone would do.

finally, i opened oc4j.jar of oc4j, i noticed it used some special way of load all the library jar in the boot xml.

anyway, AOP precompilation worked like a charm.
