Re: [aspectj-users] Intercepting array index using field get/set

[Bruno Harbulot <bruno.harbulot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

(I'm not sure what you mean by "[]operator overloading".)

Using AspectJ as it stands, it's not possible to get the array indexes 
when you are accessing an array.

It shouldn't be too difficult to have a new pointcut for array accesses, 
since it's been done quite easily in abc:

Bruno.
