| [aspectj-users] final field access? |
Just a quick question. Why can't I have a pointcut declared on a field access joinpoint of a final field? For example, the code below executes the advice fine when the field is not final, however it doesn't execute in it's current state. Can anyone shed some light?
package com.test;
public class Test {
public final String myString = "test";
public Test(){
System.out.println(myString);
}
public static void main(String[] args){
Test t = new Test();
}
}
package com.test;
public aspect TestAspect {
pointcut access() : get(public final String com.test.Test.myString);
before() : access() {
System.out.println("accessing var");
}
}
Cheers
Adam
