I am using Roo's ActiveRecord rather than a Repository and I can't figure out how to get the Aspect that converts JPA Exceptions to Spring Exceptions to work. I have seen multiple JIRA issues but I just can't manage to put it together.

ROO-182: appears to have created a roo command for adding an .aj file but this appears to have been done away with by
SPR-6275: appears the intent is now to use spring-aspects but I can't find how to get these to pay attention to my ActiveRecord.aj files since they are not @Repository.
