sample code from 
http://www.eli.sdsu.edu/courses/spring03/cs683/notes/aspectJSyntax/aspectJSyntax
.html#Heading2

public class Hello
   {
   public static void main(String[] args )
      {
      System.out.println("Hello");
      }
   }

public aspect HelloAspect
   {
   before() : call(void main(String[]))
      {
      System.out.println( "Advice");
      }
   }

Instead of output as 
Advice
Hello

The output is 
Hello

If the aspect is changed to
public aspect HelloAspect
   {
   before() : call(void *(*)) && !within(HelloAspect)
	  {
	  System.out.println( "Advice");
	  }
   }

then the correct output is produced
Advice
Hello

I tried to put advice on other static methods and the advice was picked up.
Is the advice supposed to work in this way?
I am using the latest 1.1.1 AJDT plugin for Eclipse.
