[aspectj-users] [announce] AOP@Work: AOP and metadata: A perfect match, Part 1
|
IBM developerWorks has published the first part of Ramnivas Laddad's
two-part article series AOP and metadata: A perfect match". This
article is a part of the peer-reviewed AOP@Work series. In this
article, Ramnivas examines the concepts and mechanics in using metadata
with AOP.
From The Article:
The new Java metadata facility, a part of J2SE 5.0, is perhaps the most
significant addition to the Java language to date. By providing a
standard way to attach additional data to program elements, the
metadata facility has the potential to simplify and improve many areas
of application development, including configuration management,
framework implementation, and code generation. The facility will also
have a particularly significant impact on aspect-oriented programming,
or AOP.
The combination of metadata and AOP raises important questions,
including:
* What is the impact of the metadata facility on AOP?
* Is metadata-fortified AOP optional, or is it necessary?
* What are the guidelines for using metadata effectively with AOP?
* How will this combination affect the adoption of AOP?
I'll begin to answer these questions in this two-part article, the
second in the new AOP@Work series.

As series lead, I welcome commentary from the AOP community regarding
individual articles and the series as a whole.
