AspectJ is fun. I'll take the opportunity to hijack this thread and spew some brief non-java pontification.
I've been working with Ruby, and it's interesting to contrast what you can and can't do in ruby compared to Java + aspectJ. Mixins: You can do whatever you want with include keyword in ruby. Really cool. Throw it in a module and use it wherever you want. Pointcuts/Joinpoints: Not there in ruby, and I don't know of any equivalent (does anyone else?). I really miss being able to say "do this before this method and after that method". Incredibly long parsing/precompiling times for aspectj-ified java projects, especially in IDEs: Don't miss it at all. Ruby's interpreted. Edit and refresh baby! :) -- Chad On 1/10/07, William H.
