After step 3, try adding the 'Hello World' jar file to the AspectJ project's in-path. The weaving will then occur in the AspectJ project, and the woven version of the Hello World class will be written to the output folder of the AspectJ project. You could use the Navigator view to check this. You can then run the woven class by creating a run configuration for the AspectJ project and entering the name of the class. To confirm that weaving is happening, you can also turn on a compiler option: AspectJ compiler > Information > Output weaving info messages to problems view.

Hi, Thanks for that, it makes things a little clearer. But i am still facing a few problems. Here is what i did: 1. I created a Java project with one class which basically prints 'Hello World' 2. I packaged this into a jar and exported it to a location. 3. I created a AspectJ project with one aspect which prints a message after the call to the method which prints 'Hello World'. 4. I packaged this as a 'Jar File with AspectJ support' and exported it. 5. When i execute it with the command you have specified, all i can see is 'Hello World' with no message from the aspect. I thought there might be something wrong with my code, so i put the Hello World class in the aspect project. When i ran it, it displayed the right information. Am i doing something wrong? Do i need to do something more?
