[aspectj-users] Getting the reference to an annotated class

[Mohan Radhakrishnan <radhakrishnan.mohan@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

 

         I am setting the reference to another class in PersonalDetail when it is constructed like this.

 

 after( PersonalDetail p ) : execution ( public PersonalDetail .new(..) )
                                                  && this( p ){
  System.out.println(thisJoinPoint.getSignature().toString());
  p.setDao( DAOFactory.getDAOFactory( 2 ).getAddressDAO() );
 }

 

 

Is there any way to remove the reference to PersonalDetail completely from this pointcut definition ?

 

I tried (@Entity is the annotation)

 

after( Entity e ) : execution ( * .new(..) )
                                                  && annotation( e ){
 .....

}

 

but could not write   thisJoinPoint.getThis().setDao( DAOFactory.getDAOFactory( 2 ).getAddressDAO() ); becuase thisJoinPoint.getThis()

returns an Object.
 

Thanks,

Mohan
