RE: [aspectj-users] declare parents with super/sub classes

["Ron Bodkin" <rbodkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Are you using Java 5 by any chance? If you are and you are using an aspect
to match the types that implement the interface, you might be able to use
declare annotation to do what you want instead. However, it sounds like the
JVM you are using is using interfaces like an annotation, where it doesn't
"inherit" the effect of implementing one but requires the type to explicitly
implement to get the desired effect.

P.S. And I know you're thinking, why on earth does she want to do the
subclasses AND the superclasses? I'm wondering the same but the
distributed JVM doesn't run if I don't. I've emailed the original
developers to ask them what exactly is going on that it needs to be
this way but I won't get an answer for about another 8 hours with the
time zone difference :-)
