sbt-aspectj-issue

This repository is here to demonstrate an issue I have with using sbt-aspectj to weave an external library in its own project.

This example is mainly converted from this sample but altered so that the AspectJ classes are in their own project like here.

This means that this project is actually comprised of 2 projects

• The root (i.e. sbt-aspectj-issue) project which has a @Before AspectJ annotation for an external library akka-actor. The root project is intended to be used as a library. The sample code for the AspectJ is copied from here
• The test project which is designed to test that the root project is working. It relies on the root project via a libraryDependency

To test this, first use root/publishLocal to publish the main project locally and then do test/run. Note that you may need to do root/clean to clean in between of doing changes.

The issue

The problem behind the project is that I am unable to get the sbt-aspectj setup working. The idea is that sbt-aspectj-issue is meant to be some library which instruments another external library (in this case akka-actors).
