AspectJ is not getting triggered

[Former Member]

Hey guys,

I'm currently facing the problem that my AspectJ Class is not getting trigger or much more it is not getting used from my aop.xml as soon as I start the hybrisserver.

I want to intercept the EditorConfigurationUtil getColumns() method because we have wanted to extend the ListView.xsd with our own custom logic.

My Aspect class is inside the following package: com.emmet.prem.pim.AspectJEditorUtil.AspectJEditorUtil It is inside the backoffice/src folder

My aop.xml looks as the following:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <!DOCTYPE aspectj PUBLIC "-//AspectJ//DTD//EN" "http://www.ee.org/aspectj/dtd/aspectj.dtd">
 <aspectj>
     <weaver options="-debug -showWeaveInfo">
         <include within="com.emmet.prem.pim.AspectJEditorUtil..*" />
         <include within="com.hybris.cockpitng.common.configuration.EditorConfigurationUtil" />
     </weaver>
     <aspects>
         <aspect name="com.emmet.prem.pim.AspectJEditorUtil.AspectJEditorUtil" />
     </aspects>
 </aspectj>

As you can see the path towards my AspectJ class is correct but as soon as I start the server i'm getting the following error:

 [PlatformInPlaceClassLoader@2d4f741c] warning register definition failed -- (RuntimeException) Cannot register non aspect: com$emmet$prem$pim$AspectJEditorUtil$AspectJEditorUtil , com.emmet.prem.pim.AspectJEditorUtil.AspectJEditorUtil

My AspectJEditorUtil looks as follows:

 @Aspect
 public class AspectJEditorUtil
 {
     @Around("call(* com.hybris.cockpitng.common.configuration.EditorConfigurationUtil.getColumns(..))")
     public List<ListColumn> listColumn(final ProceedingJoinPoint joinPoint) throws Throwable
     {
         return (List<ListColumn>) joinPoint.proceed();
     }
 }

(Sidenote: There is no logic in it cause firstly I want to get it started then taking care of the logic)

Is it possible that AspectJ is somehow not able to handle java classes inside the backoffice/src folder?

I used to have a similar issue. I fixed it by using execution() instead of call() in the @ Around
