[aspectj-users] How to define a pointcut for intercepting setter using a

["Shashikant Kale" <Shashikant.Kale@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

 

I am using AspecJ to implement audit aspect for auditing the data change in a domain entity.

 

I have created a pointcut as follows.

 

      public pointcut auditValueChange(AbstractBusinessEntity entity) :

        execution (void !@DoNotAudit AbstractBusinessEntity +.set*(*)) && target(entity);

 

As you see there is an annotation ‘DoNotAudit’ which is defined for field and the types. I can restrict the calls to the setters getting called for an entity marked as ‘DoNotAudit’. However how can I restrict the interception of the setter methods for the fields which are marked as ‘DoNotAudit’.

 

The example would be as below:

 

@Entity

public class DomainEntity extends AbstractBusinessEntity implements Serializable{

 

            @DoNotAudit

private String shouldNotBeAudited;

 

public void setShouldNotBeAudited(String value){

            this.shouldNotBeAudited = value;

}

}

 

Please provide any inputs you may have.

 

Thanks in advance,

Shashi
