RE: [aspectj-users] Newbie Method Call Question.

["Michael Finger" <mfinger@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ron,

Thanks for the tip - I was approaching from the wrong side. 
One more quick question - my action classes all extend a base class -
UtilitiesAction
so I want to do something like 

before(UtilitiesAction caller) : call(* businessMethod()) &&
this(caller) {
    logger.log("Call from "+caller.getClass());
}

so I pick up all the action classes that extend it (i.e. all of them)
but nothing seems to 
be matching up.

Thanks for the tip,
Michael

Michael,

How about just using getClass() on the value of this at the call join
point, e.g.,

before(Action caller) : call(* businessMethod()) && this(caller) {
    logger.log("Call from "+caller.getClass());
}

info is of great value.
