[aspectj-users] set() capture oldvalue

["Tim Schafer" <tschafer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've used the following pointcut to capture all field modifications that 
occur within a setter method.

pointcut fieldSet(Object newValue) : set(* SomeClass+.*) && args(newValue) 
&& withincode(* SomeClass+.set*(..));

I can capture the new value, but I can't capture the old value without 
resorting to reflection.
In theory aspectJ could provide access to the old value more statically.
But aspectJ doesn't seem to support this.
Or am I missing something?
