Re: [aspectj-users] Use of wildcards in pointcut designators.... 
Hi Swati,
First of all, what's the name of the class that the methods are on? Also, you seem to be confusing wildcard behavior on the components of a Signature (as the single parameter to a call pcd) with wildcards on a String.
If, for example, the class that contained the methods was MyClass then the following pcd should work to capture all three calls: 

pointcut outputLog() : call(* MyClass.f*(..));
This doesn't treat the modifier as a string, rather an enumeration that we simply are not interested in. Hope this helps :)
AspectJ is at 1.2 and is available for download from www.eclipse.org/aspectj. This is the usual distribution with a compile time weaver as well as some work done on load time weaving (see older postings to this list for info on that). 

Cheers,

Russ

Hi everybody,

I am new to AOSD... and there are few questions...

I am trying some simple examples... and need some
clarification on the use of wildcard in the following
context:

I have a java program with 3 functions:
    1) public int f1(int i);

    2) private void f2();

    3) protected int f3(int);

If I declare a pointcut:

    pointcut outputLog() : call(pr* * f*(..));

for all the private and protected functions...

both ajc 1.1.1 and 1.0.6 gives  compiler error:

 expected "(", found f
 pointcut outputLog() : call(pr* * f*(..));


I am not clear: what's wrong with the pointcut format.
Can't we use wildcards for access type?... Can anyone
explain this to me ....


Please also let me know where I can find details of
how AspectJ is implemented.... (like how proceed() is
implemeted and why the particular implementation is
preffered to other alternatives)...

One last question.... does AspectJ has a recent
version of Compile time weaver after Aspectj1.0.6.

Thanks,
Swati
