camel + service mix + spring aspect

Hi,
 
    I have implemented the following example http://cwiki.apache.org/SM/order-file-processing.html and it is working fine. I need to add few modifications to my camel context.xml. My question is , is it possible to add spring aspects to camel-context.xml i.e

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop"
                xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
       xsi:schemaLocation="
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd
       http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/spring 
       http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/spring/camel-spring.xsd
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop/spring-aop-2.5.xsd
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-2.5.xsd">
       
       
       <context:annotation-config />

        <aop:aspectj-autoproxy/>


 
  <camelContext id="camel" xmlns="http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/spring">
      <package>org.camel.su</package>
  </camelContext>
 <bean id="firstAspect" class="org.aspect.FirstAspect"/>

</beans>


 
I have my pointcuts defined in the java code using spring annotations.

The code is as follows:

@Aspect
public class SystemArchitecture {
       
         

        @Pointcut("execution(* *(..))")
        public void myFirstPointCut()
        {
               
        }

}

package org.aspect;

import org.aspectj.lang.ProceedingJoinPoint;
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Around;
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Aspect;

@Aspect
public class FirstAspect {

       
        @Around("SystemArchitecture.myFirstPointCut()")
        public void firstAspect(ProceedingJoinPoint joinPoint)
        {
                System.out.println("PRINTING FIRST ASPECT");
                try {
                                joinPoint.proceed();
                } catch (Throwable e) {
                        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                        e.printStackTrace();
                }
        }
}




If defining aspects in camel-context.xml is possible, then how do I define aspects on my RouteBuilder class.Because I want a particular piece of code to be always executed before my route builder class is called and I do not want to embed that code in the routebuilder class.

For ex: If I do some thing like this below,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop"
                xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
       xsi:schemaLocation="
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd
       http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/spring 
       http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/spring/camel-spring.xsd
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop/spring-aop-2.5.xsd
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-2.5.xsd">
       
       
       <context:annotation-config />

        <aop:aspectj-autoproxy/>


 
  <camelContext id="camel" xmlns="http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/spring">
<routeBuilder ref="someRouterBuilder"/>
  </camelContext>
 <bean id="firstAspect" class="org.aspect.FirstAspect"/>
 <bean id="someRouterBuilder" class="org.camel.su.MyRouteBuilder"/>
</beans>

public class MyRouteBuilder extends RouteBuilder {

        @Override
        public void configure() throws Exception {
                System.out.println("IN ROUTE BUILDER#####");
               
                // from our camelService which is called by the file poller
                   from("jbi:service:http://servicemix.apache.org/example/orderProcessing")
                   // we process the received order xml
                   .process(new OrderProcessor())
                   // and send the result xml back to the file sender
                   .to("jbi:service:http://servicemix.apache.org/example/fileSender");
                   
               
        }
           
           
        }



I get an exception is saying that routeBuilder should of type org.apache.camel.builder.RouteBuilder. I do not understand why I am getting this exception as my RouteBuilder class is already extending the camel RouteBuilder class.


Please help me these queries.I thank you all for your time.
