RE: [aspectj-users] Pointcut fails to match when arguments combinedwith

I think you want args(p, ..) to match any number of arguments as long as the
first one is a Level; args(p) will match exactly one argument of type Level.

Observer the following pointcut and advice which is supposed to match
all calls to Logger.log(..).  Logger.log always takes a Level as the
first parameter.  However the advice never gets applied.

    pointcut logCall(Level p) : target(Logger) && args(p) &&
!within(LoggingAspect) && call(void log(..));
    before(Level p) : logCall(p) {
        Errors.add(p);
    }

If I revise the pointcut and advice as follows it does get applied.
AspectJ seems to be getting confused when trying to use arguments and
specifying additional optional arguments using wildcards.

pointcut logCall() : target(Logger) && !within(LoggingAspect) &&
call(void(log(..));
before() : logCall() {
    dummy();
}

What's the scoop?  I've also tried the following and it doesn't match
either:

    pointcut logCall(Level p) : target(Logger) && args(p) &&
!within(LoggingAspect) && call(void log(Level, ..));
    before(Level p) : logCall(p) {
        Errors.add(p);
    }
