[aspectj-users] Override @GeneratedValue annotation with AspectJ

[ricardo garcia fernandez <alcoholitro@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone I'm new here! And need to solve a doubt with aspectj.

Here is my "problem":

Override @GeneratedValue annotation with AspectJ

Override annotated values with aspectj file

Hi!

I'm generating an annotation to set a defined sequenceValue to an id field for an Entity in Postgres DDBB.

I've been looking in AspectJ documentation: 

  - [url="" href="http://www.eclipse.org/aspectj/doc/released/adk15notebook/annotations-decp.html#declare-precedence">http://www.eclipse.org/aspectj/doc/released/adk15notebook/annotations-decp.html#declare-precedence]  http://www.eclipse.org/aspectj/doc/released/adk15notebook/an notations-decp.html#declare-precedence[/url]

to apply precende rules between aspects.

I've created a new aspect applying the precedence rules and adding annotations to fields:
[code]

privileged aspect Person_Company_generated_id {

    declare precedence: Person_Company_generated_id, Person_Roo_Entity;

  
    declare @field: * org.company.test.generated.id.sequence.domain.Person.id : @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.SEQUENCE, generator="PersonSeq");

    
    declare @field: * org.company.test.generated.id.sequence.domain.Person.id : @SequenceGenerator(name="PersonSeq",sequenceName="PERSON_SEQ", allocationSize=500, initialValue=601);

}
[/code]

The aspect generated [i]Person_Roo_Entity[/i] defines the annotation in the id attribute:
[code]
     @id
     @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
[/code]

This only works if I remove the @GeneratedValue annotation from [i]Person_Roo_Entity[/i]. 

These rules can't override the behaviour of the @GeneratedValue annotation with the attributes that I redefined.

What I'm doing wrong?How can I override the behaviour/definition of @GeneratedValue with Aspects? is the preference wrong defined? Exists another way to override a sequence to an identifier with aspects?

Scenario:
* JDK-1.5.0_07
* PostgreSQL 8.3.8
* AspectJ 1.6.9.BUILD-SNAPSHOT

Thanks for your time.

Best regards...
