[aspectj-users] Marker Interface and Abstract Pointcut

[Irum Godil <softwarengineer2004@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I want a few of my classes to implement the same advice, so I created an aspect with a marker interface and an abstract pointcut as follows:

 

abstract public aspect SynchMethods {

 

          public interface Synch {}    
          abstract pointcut synchCall(Synch s);

...

}

 

Now, in a another aspect where I want to concretize the pointcut, I am doing:

 

declare parents: AbstractPublisher implements SynchMethods.Synch;

 

pointcut synchCall(AbstractPublisher a) : target(a) && execution(public void addSubscriber(TransactionSubscriber))

 

However, I keep getting the following compile error:

 

 

can't override pointcut aspects.multithread.weave.SynchMethods.synchCall(aspects.multithread.weave.SynchMethods$Synch) with pointcut aspects.multithread.weave.ThreadAbstractPublisher.synchCall(org.prevayler.implementation.publishing.AbstractPublisher) parameter types don't match ThreadAbstractPublisher.aj 

I am not sure why I am getting this error when I have declared AbstractPublisher to implement the Synch interface. Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Sincerely,

Irum Godil.
