Re: [aspectj-users] General question about lambda support

Ok. I am happy to write test code or any other thing after the researchers are done with it. :-)

Hi Mohan,

There is no activity on this at the moment but it is coming onto the radar. The language changes coming in Java 8 may be the biggest things AspectJ has tackled for a while - the invokedynamic that arrived in Java7 was just 'tolerated' in AspectJ7 and no real attempts have been made to exploit it in code gen or recognize it as a join point. I know some researchers who work with AspectJ and I was hoping to get them to help me define the AspectJ semantics around lambdas/closures, whatever they might be.  As the real work items appear I'll mention them on the list. Any design decisions we are making can hopefully be publicly discussed to collect feedback.  Probably the first real efforts will happen once Eclipse JDT provides Java 8 compilation and AspectJ can pick that up.

cheers,
Andy

Hi,
       Is there a particular task or support activity required for supporting lambdas in aspectj at this time ? The other thread "Selecting arithmetic operation join points. Is it possible?" seemed to indicate that this is a high priority task.

Thanks,
Mohan
