Hi,
I'm trying to do something extremely simple: trace execution of methods with an aspect and log the method signatures.
However, when I run this, below is what I get:

java.lang.ClassCircularityError: org/junit/internal/runners/model/MultipleFailureException
at org.junit.internal.runners.model.EachTestNotifier.addFailure (EachTestNotifier.java:23)

I use java.util.logging, and aspectj 1.6.11.
I also tried using slf4j as logging api, and log4j/slf4j-simple as logging backend, and the same issue every time.

Is there anyone who has successfully used logging with aspectj before? I thought I was doing the simplest thing, but seems like not.
I am slowly and sadly losing faith in aspectj...

And here is what my weaver looks like:

<weaver options="">
<exclude within="org.junit..*"/>
<exclude within="junit.framework..*"/>
<exclude within="org.eclipse.jdt..*"/>
<exclude within="org.aspectj..*"/>
<exclude within="org.slf4j..*"/>
</weaver>

and I have "!within(MethodTracerAspect)" in my pointcuts.

OK, I found one line in my codebase, if commented out, everything works without any issues:

>> System.setSecurityManager(new NoExitSecurityManager());

I have no idea why and how, but everything works without this line, go figure Smile
