You need to modify your aspect : aspect PathChannelHack {
after(PathChanInst pathchannel) : set(private CircPathInst parentPathInst) && this(pathchannel) { pathchannel.setParentPathHumid(pathchannel.getParentPathInst().getPathHumId()); } } I suggest that you get this working with a standalone example first and then weave into the jar (binary weaving). -Ramnivas On Thu, Dec 4, 2008 at 11:18 AM, Sebestyén Zoltán <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I've got the following problem (I've got JDK 1.5 + AspectJ 1.5.3).
