I have a problem with applying aspects to my maven project. Probably I am missing something, so I've made a list of steps. Could you please check if it is correct?

Let say in projectA is an aspect class and in projectB classes, which should be changed by aspects.

  • Create maven project ProjectA with AspectJ class
  • add Aspectj plugin and dependency
  • Add ProjectA as a dependency to projectB pom.xml
  • Add to projectB pom.xml plugin
<plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>aspectj-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.4</version>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <goals>
                <goal>compile</goal>
                <goal>test-compile</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
    <configuration>
        <source>${maven.compiler.source}</source>
        <target>${maven.compiler.target}</target>
        <aspectLibraries>
            <aspectLibrary>
                <groupId>ProjectA</groupId>
                <artifactId>ProjectA</artifactId>
            </aspectLibrary>
        </aspectLibraries>
    </configuration>
</plugin>
  • Add aspectj dependency

After all these steps my problem is, that during compilation I get:

[WARNING] advice defined in AspectE has not been applied [Xlint:adviceDidNotMatch]

And then when I run my program:

Exception in thread "FeatureExcutionThread" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: AspectE
java maven aspectj
