Hi Frederik,
As Graham says, the way to implement this is with a namespace handler. If you
create your own namespace then you can add an element (or attribute) in the
service you want to be intercepted.
The namespace handler can then do something like this:
public Metadata parse(Element elt, ParserContext pc)
{
Metadata m = pc.getEnclosingComponent();
ComponentDefinitionRegistry cdr = pc.getComponentDefinitionRegistry();
Interceptor interceptor = getMyInterceptor();
if(cm instanceof ServiceMetadata)
cdr.registerInterceptorWithComponent(cm, interceptor);
else
throw new RuntimeException("Not a service component");
return null;
}
I hope this is helpful, it seems like you're using some pretty advanced
blueprint, may I ask what it's for?
