I’m definitely familiar with using interfaces for good measure, and I’m theoretically familiar with annotations; however, I don’t have real world project experience using annotations heavily.  Can you point me to a good example that combines AJ w/ annotations?  I can’t find any combination examples in Colyer et al.’s book from the Eclipse Series. AspectJ in Action looks pretty good.  Does anyone know if it does a better job combining these two features?  Or maybe some other source?


Both of those books are too early to cover Java 5 annotation support. The online AspectJ 5 manual has a complete discussion of how to write PCDs that match on annotations, etc. (Note, this manual is also in the Eclipse Help, once you've installed AJDT.)

I'm sure a number of people have written aspects that use annotation matching and you might google for them. One of those people happens to be me ;) My contract4j project is based exclusively on annotations (contract4j.org). You could look at the aspects inside to get some examples.
