Re: [aspectj-dev] adviceexecution and/or astract pointcut definitions

Hi Eric -

If I understand you correctly...

field-set and advice-execution are two different kinds of 
join points, so 

   set(* *) && adviceexecution()

will never pick out any join point.

You could pick out any field-set join point within 
the aspect Aspect:

   set(* *) && within(Aspect)

or in the control flow of an advice-execution join point 
within the aspect:

   set(* *) && cflow(adviceexecution() && within(Aspect))

For good explanations, see the programming guide,
particularly the semantics appendix.   

Hope this helps -
Wes

P.S. - I appreciate the code gifs, but some would prefer
the code in the body of the email.  thanks-

P.P.S. - You can use the users list also to find out if
something is indeed a bug, and then submit the bug to
get a response from a developer.
