Question regarding the pre-processing of pristine classloaders and repackaging
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: AW-482
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/AW-482
             Project: AspectWerkz
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: hook
         Environment: Windows operating system, although question is somewhat germane to the question.
            Reporter: Steven Smith
            Priority: Minor


We are evaluating the usage of AspectWerkz in our software project.  I am the CTO at the company and have been told by my developers that Aspectwerkz ships with an offline utility that modifies the standard VM classloaders and repackes them to a degree.  Could you verify this and if so are there any license considerations given that you are modify the VM code without any license to do so?

Thank you,
Steven Smith
CTO, Tidal Software

Alexandre Vasseur resolved AW-482.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Not A Bug

There are multiple ways to hook in AspectWerkz into an application. The recommanded way is either class post compilation, or use of Java 5/ Java 6 javaagent jvm option.
The modification of java.lang.ClassLoader is deprecated and only here for historical purpose and compatibility with legacy Java 1.3/1.4

Just a note: most of AspectWerkz concepts are now implemented into the more broadly supported AspectJ project.
