AfterThrowing aspect not called?

[chhasid]

I am just starting with spring aop so please bear with me.
And i cant really figure out whats going on
This is what I have -

public class BatchingAspect implements ThrowsAdvice{
	private transient Log log = LogFactory.getLog(BatchingAspect.class){
	public void afterThrowing(Exception ex) {
		log.error("i am inside afterThrowing of BatchingAspect");
                System.out.println("i am inside afterThrowing of BatchingAspect");
	}
}

public class AtomAnteDaoHibernate extends HibernateBaseDao<AtomAnte> implements AtomAnteDao {
	private transient Log log = LogFactory.getLog(AtomAnteDaoHibernate.class);
	public List<AtomAnte> loadAntes(List<Long> atoms)
			throws ObjectNotFoundException {
		if(true) {
			log.debug("throwing UncategorizedSQLException");
			throw new UncategorizedSQLException("myTask","select * from t",
new SQLException("Too many ANDs or ORs in expression (limit 1024 per expression level). 
Try splitting query or limiting ANDs and ORs.","ZZZZZ",404));
		}
	}
}

and my spring config - 
<bean id="batchingAspect"
        class="BatchingAspect" />
  <aop:config>
    <aop:pointcut id="getListMethod" expression="execution(* AtomAnteDaoHibernate.loadAntes(..))"/> 
    <aop:advisor advice-ref="batchingAspect" pointcut-ref="getListMethod" />
  </aop:config>

And i can see inside the debug logs --
19:41:16,589 DEBUG [org.springframework.aop.framework.adapter.ThrowsAd viceInterceptor] Found exception handler method: public void BatchingAspect.afterThrowing(java.lang.Exception)
19:41:16,591 DEBUG [AtomAnteDaoHibernate] throwing UncategorizedSQLException


I dont know what i am doing wrong, my aspect is not called.
the same thing works outside of jboss(or atleast simliar configuration).

Any ideas on what i could be doing wrong here ?
Is it just configuration ?
Could somebody point me in the right direction ?

help would be greatly appreciated.

I think your pointcut is wrong. You need to include the package name (or a wildcard for the package). No it will only match classes in the default/root package.

Also check your log levels, it might be that you don't see your logging due to logging configuration.
