Spring AOP gives IllegalArgumentException with Java 8

Question

With Java 8 and Spring AOP 4.0.6 I am getting following error

    java.lang.RuntimeException: Error scanning file MonitorAroundPerformance.class
    at org.e         


        

Answer 1

Jetty 9.2.0 is the first version of Jetty to support annotation and class scanning for JDK8.

There was an update to the asm library we use, along with some api changes to support the new JDK8 bytecode scanning.

You'll want to upgrade.
