Yes, it is, and as such it is error-prone due to code duplication. Furthermore, I have many pointcuts and they would all need a shadow advice (or one collecting them all via "pc1 || pc2 || pc3 ..."). Whatever I do, I have to remember adding the second pointcut. Back to my question: Do you think it might be possible to make proceed() calls joinpoints in future AspectJ versions? The more intensive and professional someone uses the language, the more likely it is that intercepting other advice or joinpoints therein might be used. The funny thing is that I can intercept advice execution in general or any joinpoint inside an advice, but just not the most prominent place in any around() advice: the proceed() call, just because it is not a joinpoint, even though it is so important. I can even call proceed() multiple times within an advice, but not capture it directly. It would be really powerful to be able to do that. I thought before issuing a ticket on Bugzilla I should ask here first so as to determine if there is any chance to get such a joinpoint. As you can see in the stackoverflow.com link [1] I posted in my original question here, I have solved the problem in a rather ugly way via an extended (parametrisable) version of Ramnivas Laddad's worker object pattern. But actually this is not what I want because it feels really inelegant. -- Alexander Kriegisch >> Bottom line: My wish is a pointcut "proceedexecution()" or >> similar. >> >> [1] >> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12018585/how-to-intercept-proceed-in-another-aspectj-aspect >> [2] https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=92889 _______________________________________________ aspectj-users mailing list aspectj-users@eclipse.org https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/aspectj-users
