    ClassNotFoundException when many Aspectj Advices are applied to one class within woven jar.

    rapoo

      Hi All,

       

      I am using JBoss AS 7.1 with AspectJ 1.8.0. The application is EAR file and within, all the jar files are under ear/lib folder and there is no jar file within war/lib/.

       

      It is a maven 3 based project where I apply aspectj during build time weaving. Aspectjrt has been included as part of dependency.

       

      Problem comes whenever I applied more aspectj advices, where within the applied .jar file has about 30 .ajc$/advices for one class based on the pointcuts defined during build time weaving.

       

      When it's the case, Jboss Classloader always fails by throwing NoClassDefFoundError.

       

      Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.my.class.* from [Module "deployment.myear.ear:main" from Service Module Loader]

       

           at org.jboss.modules.ModuleClassLoader.findClass(ModuleClassLoader.java:190) ...

       

      ....

       

      ..

       

      However if I apply less advices to one particular class, there is no issue at all.

       

      I also verify the problematic jar via command line with the woven jar files without issue. It seems to happen only when running within JBoss.

       

      Is this a known issue/bug with JBoss AS 7.1 or is there configuration required for my use case ?

       

      Any help for this is appreciated.

       

      Thanks & Regards,
