[aspectwerkz-user] help with aspect not weaved

Hi,

I have the following aspect:

    <aspect name="test.com.ubs.firc.support.aspect.GenericMethodDecorator" deployment-model="perInstance">
      <pointcut name="helper" expression="call(* com.ubs.firc.credit..ejbPrionEJBHelper.*(..))"/>
      <advice name="decorate" type="around" bind-to="helper"/>
    </aspect>

in my aop.xml. Basically, I want to put an around advice around all methods of the class 'ejbPrionEJBHelper'. The aspect is not applied as all Aspects.aspectOf methods throw an exception saying that no aspect is found. I put the verbose mode to trace all AspectWerkz activity, and I see things like this in the console:

sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader@1813fac@25247660:com.ubs.firc.credit.jrisk2003_2.external.valuation.ExternalValuationDebug[main]
sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader@1813fac@25247660:org.gjt.sp.jedit.OperatingSystem[main]
sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader@1813fac@25247660:org.gjt.sp.jedit.MiscUtilities[main]
sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader@1813fac@25247660:org.gjt.sp.jedit.io.VFSManager[main]
sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader@1813fac@25247660:org.gjt.sp.jedit.JARClassLoader[main]
sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader@1813fac@25247660:org.gjt.sp.jedit.io.VFS[main]
sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader@1813fac@25247660:org.gjt.sp.jedit.io.FileVFS[main]

etc...

However, there's no trace of loading of my class of interest 'ejbPrionEJBHelper'. Does that mean that AspectWerkz simply never intersepts the loading of that class (I'm sure it eventually gets loaded because I instantiated it)?  I also tried putting the full package name instead of the '..' construct. This is not running in an EJB container, nevermind the name of ejbPrionEJBHelper - it's a simple helper class that doesn't use J2EE API.

Any idea how I could debug this problem?

Thanks,
Boris
