I am trying to create a sample maven project with aspectj in Eclipse Neon. However, aspects are not weaving/working (see output below). I tried looking into lots of causes and solutions but none worked (see related questions below). Any help/insights would be very much appreciated. Thanks!
Technologies used:
- Java
jdk-1.8 - Eclipse (Java EE) Neon 3
- Apache Maven 3.5.0
junit-4.5(included through maven)aspectjrt-1.8.9(included through maven)
(I also installed the AJDT plugin to my Eclipse installation for a separate project -- not sure if this inhibits the maven repository version of aspectj)
