RE: [aspectj-dev] Can I "generate" with aspectJ

[Adrian Colyer <adrian_colyer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The closest you can get today is to use JET or a similar tool in 
conjunction with AspectJ in order to have JET generate the inter-type 
declaring aspects. 

More information about JET can be found in the following articles:

http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-JET/jet_tutorial1.html
http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-JET2/jet_tutorial2.html

There are no current plans to provide a facility of the kind you ask for 
within AspectJ directly.

RE: [aspectj-dev] Can I "generate" with aspectJ






Can I do it generally?
Something like: generate getter and setter for all public fields.
Best will be if I can combine it with Tiger metadata:
public class User {
                 @field private String firstName;
                 @field private String ...;
                 ...
}

will be transformed to

public class User {
                 private String firstName;
                 public String getFirstName() {return firstName;}
                 public void setFirstName(String pName) {firstname=pName};
 
                 private String ...
}
for any number of fields and classes with one aspect.

Is something like this scheduled for future releases?

Thank you

You can use inter-type declarations as follows:

public class info {
  public String firstName;
}


public aspect InfoProperties {

  public String info.getFirstName() {}

  public void info.setFirstName(String fName) { firstName = fName; } 
 
}

You can't make the public field in "info" suddenly become private, but you 

could use a declare warning to achieve a similar effect. To the 
InfoProperties aspect add the following:

declare warning ; set(* info.firstName) && !within(InfoProperties)
  : "Only update firstName via the setter method.";

[aspectj-dev] Can I "generate" with aspectJ






I would like to generate some methods inside java class. For example: 
SRC: 
public class info { 
        public String firstName; 
} 
After weaving: 
public class info { 
        private String firstName; 
        public String getFirstName() { 
        } 
        public void setFirstName(String pName) { 
                firstName=pName; 
        } 
} 
Is something like this feasible with AspectJ?
