Simple AOP Not Working

Good Morning Everyone,

I am trying to get a simple aop app to work but it seems as if spring is ignoring the aop part of my spring-config file. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Here is what I have:
1) A simple interface and implementing class
2) A pojo aspect class
3) A class to test it
4) My spring config.xml

Code:

---


 
//==========================================
 
package com.macdon.aop.logging.test;
public interface IService {
        Object doSomething(String obj,int i);       
        void doException() throws Throwable;
}
 
//==========================================
 
package com.macdon.aop.logging.test;
public class ServiceImpl implements IService{
        public Object doSomething(String obj, int i) {
                System.err.println(obj + i);
                return obj;
        }
        public void doException() throws Throwable {
                throw new Exception("Thrown exception");
        }
}
 
//==========================================
 
package com.macdon.aop.logging;
public class TestAspect {
  public TestAspect() {} 
  public void foo() {
    System.out.println("===== This got injected =====");
  }
}
 
//==========================================

    </aop:aspect>
  </aop:config>
</beans>

I get output:

Testing 123
java.lang.Exception: Thrown exception at com.macdon.aop.logging.test.ServiceImpl.doExceptio n(ServiceImpl.java:17)
at com.macdon.aop.logging.test.TestLogger.main(TestLo gger.java:19)

But no aop behavior.

Can someone please help?

Thanks so much.

import com.macdon.aop.logging.test.IService;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanFactory;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.XmlBeanFactory;
import org.springframework.core.io.ClassPathResource;
import org.springframework.core.io.Resource;

public class TestLogger  {
  public TestLogger() {  } 
  public static void main(String[] args) {   
    Resource resource = new ClassPathResource("spring-config.xml");
    BeanFactory  beanFactory = new XmlBeanFactory(resource);   
    IService foo = (IService) beanFactory.getBean("fooService");   
    foo.doSomething("Testing ", 123);
    try {
      foo.doException(); 
    } catch (Throwable t) {
      t.printStackTrace();
    }       
  }
}

As answered numerous times use an ApplicationContext implementation. In your case ClassPathXmlApplicationContext. Chapter 3.8 of the reference guide explains the differences between a BeanFactory and an ApplicationContext.

Thanks for helping a noob out. I appreciate it.
