Re: [aspectj-users] Pointcuts as a type?

["Ramnivas Laddad" <ramnivas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A pointcut serves as an intermediate program construct so that AspectJ can weave crosscutting action at join points selected by it.

Can you provide a use case that will benefit from implementing pointcuts as a Java type?

Hi All

I was wondering why pointcuts have been implemented in the way that they have and not as a usual java type?

Currently I keep on having cause to wish for the ability to pass pointcuts as parameters to advice and also to store them in a list.

Will pointcuts be modified in the future to allow these operations or is there some good reason for not allowing this?

Thank You

Piers
