Hi. There is currently no way to do this with AspectJ as far as I know. The problem is that you would have to do real dynamic weaving, i.e. modify your program code on-the-fly, which is simply impossible with current Java technologies, at least on a standard JVM. There are chances to do so with specialized VMs such as Steamloom, however. The only choice you have when using AspectJ is weaving in some predefined aspects and disabling/enabling them at runtime. This of course is not without overhead.
