[aspectj-users] Tracing a method call

["Mohan Radhakrishnan" <radhakrishnan.mohan@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

     Can we trace a method call through the codebase using pointcuts like this

 

  pointcut callStaticMethod ():
         call (* com.test.MyObject.callStaticMethod(..));
 

  before(): callStaticMethod() {
   System.out.println( thisJoinPointStaticPart.
                   getSourceLocation().getWithinType() );
   System.out.println( thisJoinPointStaticPart.
                   getSignature().getDeclaringTypeName() );
  }
 

 

Assume that there is a call line like this. method1 -> method2 -> method3 etc. We don't have annotations declared on these

methods.

 

If each method calls only one other method then we can trace the call line ? Is this possible ?

 

Thanks,

Mohan
