[Jboss-dev-forums] [Design of AOP on JBoss (Aspects/JBoss)] - Is runtime hotdeploy of jar/aop.xml bundle possible?

[neil_g_avery <nu...@jb...>]

Hi All,
Is it possible to have a running application, and then hotdeploy a jar which has an associated aop.xml to be applied? 

I imagine this may be tricky as it would require reweaving of already loaded classes and only work on the those classes that are 'prepared'.

However, what it the new deployment was only applied to a jar, or set of jars not deployed in the container?

If this is not possible, would a sensible alternative be to go offline; prepare (aopc) the jar, rebundle and deploy that? Would this approach cause problems?

Regards Neil.
