Jennie, I presume you are using pointcuts other than method execution e.g. field get to track coverage. The WeaveMessage class gives you both the aspect and affected type name as well as the message issued. From this you can determine which line numbers in which source files will be monitored. Therefore you can actually determine the scope in terms of source lines for a method (using the message for constructor-/method-execution) and therefore which join point (shadows) it contains.
There have been a number of enhancements since weaveinfo messages were introduced in Bug 36747 but a quick search of Bugzilla yields nothing similar to what you request. I suggest you open an enhancement describing the additional information you are looking for and/or any extensions to the existing WeaveMessage interface. However, this is quite a narrow use case and the request will be prioritized accordingly ;-).

You are assuming (and this must be the correct way of doing it) that I need to access the enclosing method within my aspect definitions. What I've really been doing is grabbing weave data by parsing the --showWeaveInfo messages through a custom MessageHandler. This way, I have info on all the weaved classes even if they are never hit. I am working on a coverage tool, which needs to have a comprehensive view of each class' methods; it needs to know beforehand how many matching joinpoints to pointcuts there are. At runtime, I keep track of surrounding info about each joinpoint and update the coverage numbers, based on whether or not they have been executed. I'm currently able to give class-level information, but thought it would be helpful to give method-level coverage information also. Does this make it clearer? Please let me know if it doesn't make sense or if I'm completely missing an easier approach to this. Your previous answer was helpful to me because I needed to know how to get enclosing method info on the runtime side also. Thanks very much. --- Ron Bodkin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Jennie, > > The information in thisEnclosingJoinPointStaticPart > is available before the > application is running (e.g., you could even use it > in a if() pointcut > designator).
