Re: [aspectj-dev] inner method calls

[George Harley1 <GHARLEY@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Evert,

If I follow the scenario laid out in
your note I am unable to recreate the problem you describe. If I compile
and run the below simple class and aspect ...


public class A {

  public static void main(String[]
args) {
    System.out.println("main
method calling static method start...");
    start();
  }

  public static void start() {
    System.out.println("static
method start here");

    System.out.println("start
calling static methodA...");
    methodA();


    System.out.println("start
calling static methodB...");
    methodB();
  }


  public static void methodA() {
    System.out.println("static
method A here");
  }

  public static void methodB() {
    System.out.println("static
method B here");
  }
}// end of class A



aspect TestAspect
{
  pointcut pe(): call(static * A.*(..));
         
       
  before() : pe()
  {
    System.out.println("PE
!!!!!!");
  }
}// end of TestAspect


... then the following console output
is seen ...

main method calling static method start...
PE !!!!!!
static method start here
start calling static methodA...
PE !!!!!!
static method A here
start calling static methodB...
PE !!!!!!
static method B here


The advice text is written on the call
to the start() method from main() and similarly the advice text gets written
out again each time there is a call from start() to another of the static
methods in class A. 

Does this simple case adequately reflect
your set up or have I misunderstood your note ? Also, could you let us
know what version of AspectJ you are working with and what compiler options
you are using.

Best regards,
George

PS, For future reference, this kind
of question should really be posed on the aspectj-users list.

Subject	[aspectj-dev] inner method calls

Hi all,

I am new to AspectJ and I have an question about it.
I got an aspect like

public aspect TestAspect
{
                
pointcut pe(): call(static * sourceforge.gpe.engine.PluginEngine.*(..));
                
                
before() : pe()
                
{
                
                 System.out.println("PE
!!!!!!");
                
}

}

The class PluginEngine contains some static methods
like start(java.util.List) loadPlugin(URL url) and shutdown().

When I call from a class PluginEngine.start() the text is printed to the
console, also when I call another method on PluginEngine.
The start method calls other static methods in PluginEngine.
when the method start called text is printed out to the console before
the start method is entered but noting no text is printed out before 
other methods are entered that are called by the start method.

What I am doing wrong ?

Best regards,
Evert
