Aha! That's exactly what I was looking for. I wasn't understanding why AspectJ was trying to weave into different classes when I had specified a target() but I had it wrong; it's indeed within() I was looking for. Thanks also for the tip with the fully classified names. I'm using them to prevent any issues with ambiguity but now that you mention it, if I have the import down to the package where the class is, it shouldn't be a problem.
Thanks for all the help!
