Re: [aspectj-users] Could an advice be declared synchronized, like decla

["Ron Bodkin" <rbodkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes you can use a synchronized statement in the body of an advice. See the example below (which compiles & runs successfully). I don't believe you can use the synchronized keyword before advice (it fails for me).

public aspect SynchAdvice {
    before() : execution(* main(..)) {
	synchronized(this) {
	    System.out.println("entering advice on thread "+Thread.currentThread());
	}
    }

    public static void main(String args[]) {
	// exercise for the reader: spawn several threads that call back on main
	// with a delay before completing to prove it works
    }
}
