Re: [ajdt-dev] Getting details from AJModel

[Matt Chapman <mpchapman@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Irum,

Hmm, currently it's not that easy - you'd have to go from the source
code of the element, to get the string, then extract the names of any
pointcuts, and then locate those pointcuts. We're working on some
pointcut utilities, and we should probably add an easy way to get the
string from the advice element. But I think there's an even better
way, which is for us to expose the "uses pointcut" relationship that
is down in ajde - then you could go straight from an AdviceElement to
a list of PointcutElements. Please raise an enhancement request, and
we'll look into it.

Regards,

Matt.
