Because of how Java handles super calls, they are not call join 
points.  It's in the programming guide:
and the FAQ...
" A call join point matches only the ``external'' 
calls of a method or constructor, based on a signature, and it does not pick out 
calls made with super, or this constructor calls."

  Subject: [aspectj-users] Pointcut on super method call
  
  I can't get a 
  pointcut to advise a super classes method calls. Does this work? Any 
  suggestions on what might be wrong? I am using Java 1.4.2_06 and Eclipse AJ 
  version 1.2.0.20050610. 
   
  class A 
  {
      
  public void setFu(String text) {
      
  }
  }
   
  class B extends A 
  {
      
  public void setBar(String text) {
          
  super.setFu(text) {
          
  }
      
  }
  }
   
  before(B b) : 
  (call (* B.set*(..)))
       && 
  target(b) {
  someAdvice(comp);
 }
   
  static void 
  swingAdvice(B b) {
        
  System.out.println("advises B");
}
  Thanks,
   
  Troy
