Re: [aspectj-users] Re: Verbose mode on ajc / aspectj compiler output?

Thanks Andy,  I did not attach the code beyond the pointcuts  due to the pointcuts not working correctly.  I assumed there were a glaring problem in the pointcuts that anyone beyond a novice (like myself) would just catch at a glance.

But apparently the pointcuts not working are due to my toolchain (?) instead of the code being incorrect. 

I am using the AspectJ weaver inside intellij 9.0.2   We have other Aspects that are working correctly. This is a bit strange.

In any case I have downloaded Eclipse and will install the ADJT and  for eclipse and  PointcutDoctor tools. 

thx again.

Your code works for me.  Here it is in a more complete example:

@Aspect
class Azpect {

       @Pointcut(value = "execution(public * *.getManagedClass())")
       public void notInMethods() {
       }

       @Around(value = "!notInMethods() && execution(public * *.get* (..))
&& this(dao)", argNames = "thisJoinPoint, dao")

       public void foo(JoinPoint jp, Object dao) {

       }
}

class Foo {
       public void getManagedClass() {
       }

       public void getOne() {
       }

       public void getTwo() {
       }
}

Both getOne() and getTwo() are advised, but not getManagedClass()

I know you are interested in tools for this problem (and pointcut
doctor is that tool) but to get better assistance on the mailing list
if you post complete programs you will likely get a faster response.

My advice would be to build up your pointcuts from tiny pieces that do
exactly what you are expecting.  Did you attach advice to
notInMethods() - does it match where you expect?
