[aspectj-users] Re: getting 'around' constructor execution

[danny <danny.foncke@xxxxxxxx>]

oops forgot the pointcut declaration :

pointcut constructor(A instance, Type arg):
		execution (A.new (Type))
		&& this(instance)
		&& args(arg);


the class to be woven is something like
public class A {
  private Type var1;
  public A(Type arg) {
     super(arg);
     var1=arg;
  }
}

the actual goal is to replace the constructor so that 'super(arg)' is 
not called.

as before, all help much appreciated.
