Re: [aspectj-users] Join point on main

["Ron Bodkin" <rbodkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Laurent,

It does work. The syntax you posted isn't valid AspectJ code, but if you were using a call pcd then it wouldn't execute unless you wove into the JDK that calls the main method. Here's an example of how to do it using execution:

aspect TraceMain {
    pointcut main() : execution(public static void PointcutMain.main(String[]));
    
    before() : main() {
	System.out.println("Entering main...");
    }
}

public class PointcutMain {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
    }
}
