RE: [aspectj-users] [Newbie] Pick out a call / execution only in the hie

["Bruno Feurer" <bfeurer@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Petecan,

try ...

   public pointcut getOptionsPointcut() :
       call(public String[] OptionHandler.getOptions())
       && withincode(Randomizable+)
     ;

As stated in the Programming Guide
(http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/indextech.cgi/~checkout~/aspectj-home/do
c/progguide/language-joinPoints.html#d0e1288) calls should not capture
super calls.

Bruno
