Enabling @AspectJ Support

To use @AspectJ aspects in a Spring configuration, you need to enable Spring support for configuring Spring AOP based on @AspectJ aspects and auto-proxying beans based on whether or not they are advised by those aspects. By auto-proxying, we mean that, if Spring determines that a bean is advised by one or more aspects, it automatically generates a proxy for that bean to intercept method invocations and ensures that advice is run as needed.

The @AspectJ support can be enabled with programmatic or XML configuration. In either case, you also need to ensure that AspectJ’s org.aspectj:aspectjweaver library is on the classpath of your application (version 1.9 or later).
