Thx for the reply, in the end I got it working by changing the
deployment-model to perJVM. 

 

No Instance of com.xxx.core.audit.Log is ever created (it's a static
singleton ) so maybe the aspect could never get bind wih the perinstance
setting?

Just a guess on my part..

Here is the working xml snippet

 

       <!-- Aspect to capture username in trxns-->
     <aspect class="GetUserAspect" deployment-model="perInstance">
           <pointcut name="SetUser" expression="execution(* void
com.xxx.core.audit.Log.setUser(..))"/>
           <advice name="storeUserName(StaticJoinPoint jp)" type="after
returning" bind-to="SetUser"/>     </aspect>

an "after returning" joinpoint kind on a "void method(stuff)" will likely
not match

use simply after perhaps

All, I have several aspects running correctly in weblogic but, having
trouble advising a certain static method, I've tried several diff pointcut
definitions but it never works on this particular class. It has worked on a
similar non-static method..Any help to debug this would be appreciated

 

Here are the details
