I am not sure I understood what you're trying to achieve.
If you try to use offline weaving you still need the aop.xml at runtime. So after compile step, you
run the aspectwerkz.bat using -offiline mode, and at runtime you provide the aop.xml in either
META-INF dir or throught the system property -Daspectwerkz.definition.file=
