However I would also be very concerned that one of the many numerous "AOP" toolktis were not considered.
same here...bob lee's is supposed to be good...
AOP != Interceptors
true. AOP is an overused buzzword, interceptors are a useful and proven technique ;)
Interceptors can be explained as an around-joins, but they are more than that.
well, actually, you can implement various joins using interceptors (I think the only thing you can't do using java proxies and interceptors is caller-side aspecting or property aspecting), and people have.
If you look inside an "AOP toolkit", you'll see its often just a way to manage the creation of interceptor chains. I think Nanning and AspectWerkz even have an Interceptor class :-D
