aspectj-plugin:2.9.5 inpath config

[Cryln]

JDK 8, Gradle 4.8, aspectj-plugin 2.9.5

I need to enhance a third-party tool, but this version seems cannot specify arbitrary inpath, so I used an unconventional method to enhance.

task copyClass(type: Copy) {
    from { zipTree(configurations.enhance.files.first())}
    include ("com/dianping/cat/message/internal/Default*.class")
    into 'build/classes/java/main'
}
compileJava.dependsOn copyClass

but this is hard to explain it in Code-Review.
is there a better way?

in version 2.9.5, it is impossible to set the inpath for the io.freefair.aspectj.post-compile-weaving plugin.

Why are you using such an old version?

Cuz our project is based in JDK8 & Gradle 4.8, plugin-2.9.5 is the only version suitable
