aop portability: wild idea

supertbone Dec 6, 2003 5:44 PM

I have a wild idea howto get jboss aop in other application servers/frameworks.

1) jboss uses a modified classloader to instrument classes
2) because most appservers uses own classloader hierachies jboss aop can't be used there.

3) classloaders themself have get loaded, if the system classloader instrument all subclasses of classloader(recursief) to include aop then we are in business.

Just my thoughts

You can modify Class.class and put it in the bootclasspath. This is illegal though according to the JDK /Java license. Eventually we will allow this and also you will have the option to precompiile stuff

One more comment on this. It wouldn't work because URLClassLoader and such.
