Aspectj IMessageHolder ignored by Maven

[Charles Daniels <cj...@yahoo.com>]

Hi All,

Unfortunately, the AspectJ plugin for Maven does not support
specification of an IMessageHolder implementation via the
messageHolderClass attribute of the iajc Ant task.  Therefore, I have
added a goal to my maven.xml file that calls the iajc Ant task with the
attribute, specifying my custom IMessageHolder implementation.  Here is
what it looks like:

  <goal name="weave" prereqs="java:compile">
    <taskdef
resource="org/aspectj/tools/ant/taskdefs/aspectjTaskdefs.properties">
      <classpath refid="maven.dependency.classpath"/>
    </taskdef>

    <iajc
      messageHolderClass="com.mypackage.MyMessageHolder"
      classpathRef="maven.dependency.classpath"
      debug="true"
      deprecation="true"
      destdir="target/woven-classes"
      failonerror="false">
      
      <sourceroots>
        <pathelement location="src/java"/>
        <pathelement location="src/aspects"/>
      </sourceroots>
    </iajc>
  </goal>

The problem is that MyMessageHolder is never used by the iajc task.
Even if I change the class name to some class that does not exist, I
never get a ClassNotFoundException.  However, if I create an Ant target
containing this identical task, MyMessageHolder *is* used, and if I
specify a non-existent class, I get a ClassNotFoundException.

Any ideas on why I am seeing behavior in Maven that is different from
Ant for an identically configured task?

Cheers,
Chuck
