Re: [aspectj-users] Matching varargs with subtypes: call(* *.*(Object+...))
|
My understanding on varargs is that they are converted to an array
during compilation, since AspectJ matches against the binary class
file, would:
call(* IPersistenceServices+.*(Object+[])) && args(varargs)
Possibly work?

Hi,
I want to advise certain methods with an arbitrary number of formal
parameters which have arbitrary types.
My advice calls a method foo(…) that runs in another JVM, so I
cannot use proceed(…); therefore I use reflection to invoke the
method originally called. I am trying to use AspectJ's varargs
support to pass the arguments (all of them!) on to foo(…), like this:
void around(Object[] varargs) :
call(* IPersistenceServices+.*(Object+...))
&& args(varargs) {
System.out.println("Advice got woven!");
myServer.foo(varargs);
}
Note the underlined part. This syntax (Object+…) seems to be in
accordance with the grammar described in the AspectJ/ADK 1.5 Notebook:
http://www.eclipse.org/aspectj/doc/released/adk15notebook/annotations-pointcuts-and-advice.html#signaturePatterns
(MethodPattern => FormalsPattern => TypePattern '…' =>
SimpleTypePattern)
However, the Eclipse IDE complains about a syntax error, and my
aspect isn't woven. I am using the 1.6.1 runtime with Equinox Aspects.
Of course I could only match on (Object...), i.e. without the plus,
but that would mean constraining all methods that I want to advise
to declare an (Object...) formal parameter, instead of e.g.
(String...) or (MyType...) However this would really be subpar, so
it'd be great to have something like the pointcut above.
Is the "TypeName+…" syntax and behavior simply not supported, or am
I just doing it wrong?
Thanks for any clarification or suggestions,
Yang
