How to configure Spring to use aspectj for Transactional?

Question

According this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/3429757/2674303 To use @Transactional when I execute local method I did following steps:

added to pom.xml:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.aspectj</groupId>
        <artifactId>aspectjrt</artifactId>
        <version>1.8.7</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.aspectj</groupId>
        <artifactId>aspectjweaver</artifactId>
        <version>1.8.7</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-aspects</artifactId>
    </dependency>

replace in context

<tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="transactionManager"/>

with

<tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="transactionManager" mode="aspectj"/>

after it I saw

Could not obtain transaction-synchronized Session for current thread

additionally added:

<context:load-time-weaver/>

But when make mvn clean install I see(problem occures when tests try to execute. In my test I up appliction context):

If skip test phase while building application - build success and then run mvn clean install jetty:run I see following stacktrace:

update 3

Also I tried to add

@Configuration
@EnableLoadTimeWeaving(aspectjWeaving= EnableLoadTimeWeaving.AspectJWeaving.ENABLED)
public class Configiuration {

I see same result

update 4:

class which uses Transactional annotation:

@Service
@Transactional
public class CompanyServiceImpl implements CompanyService {
    @PostConstruct
    public void init() {
        this.refreshStopJobs();
    }
    ...
}   

Solution

Actually this post wa helpful for me

Answer 1

Basically to make AspectJ Load Time Weaving to work you need at first think of environment your app is going to work. As the name says the "load time" means that your classes are going to be changed by classloader. So from your question I understand that you need yours LTW in two environment. First is the "Test" environment that is command line and second is the Servlet Container (Jetty/Tomcat).

So lets start from the Test Environment: Your tests are failing because classloader has no chance to edit/instrument/weave you classes, Spring can't help you as it isn't yet running and you have chosen Load Time over Run Time Weaving. So we need somehow tell the default classloader that we are going to hack to classes. This is documented at Spring Documentation To do so we need to add -javaagent which in our case instead of instrumenting/profiling runtime will just change the classes at load time. To achieve this just tell maven to add 2 javaaganets : the aspectj-weaver-x.jar and special spring-instrument-x.jar, so just in your maven plugins section add.

<plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.19</version>
        <configuration>
            <forkMode>once</forkMode>
            <argLine>
                    -javaagent:${settings.localRepository}/org/springframework/spring-instrument/4.2.2.RELEASE/spring-instrument-4.1.6.RELEASE.jar
                    -javaagent:${settings.localRepository}/org/aspectj/aspectjweaver/1.8.7/aspectjweaver-1.8.7.jar
            </argLine>
            <useSystemClassloader>true</useSystemClassloader>
        </configuration>
</plugin>

Just remember to add spring-instrument-4.1.6.RELEASE.jar as dependency at least in provided scope to be sure that it is in the repo ;) After adding this configuration settings you tests execution will work fine. Just try:

mvn clean package

Next lets start with the second environment the Servlet Container. If you are running Tomcat then you are happy, as you can overrride default classloader by the one which is shipped with spring by adding following META-INF/context.xml to your project.

<Context path="/myWebApp" docBase="/my/webApp/location">
    <Loader
    loaderClass="org.springframework.instrument.classloading.tomcat.TomcatInstrumentableClassLoader"/>
</Context>

More info here. For Jetty you should manually edit the run script and add two -javaagents as we have done for maven test environment.
