I wonder if anyone has any ideas for the following scenario.

1. In AROUND advice in Advice.xpt, I EXPAND Foo in Base.xpt in multiple places.
2. Foo in turn EXPANDS Bar.
3. I advise Bar in with another AROUND in Advice.xpt.
4. I want to do somewhat different things in Bar depending on where I started in (1).

I could of course modify Foo so that I pass in some generic context information that I then pass back through Bar, but obviously that's not very satisfactory as it requires a major refactoring and breaks other advises. In general this is just a consequence of the language design, and perhaps I should refactor to allow generic "hints" to be passed from one EXPAND to another, but I'm wondering if someone has thought of a better way or there is a language feature that I've missed.

Hello,

you could try to put your context information into a GLOBALVAR.

Regards
Darius
