Re: [aspectj-users] question on ajlib:
It looks like there is a bug in Log4jExecutionTracing. You need to change pertypewithin(Traced) to pettypewithin(Traced+) in Log4jExecutionTracing.

Once I do that, I get the following output:
trace enter: com.AjlibTest.DummyObject() , this: com.AjlibTest.DummyObject@60420f
trace exit: com.AjlibTest.DummyObject()
trace enter: int com.AjlibTest.DummyObject.someMethod(int) , this: com.AjlibTest.DummyObject@60420f, args: arg 0 = 5
trace exit: int com.AjlibTest.DummyObject.someMethod(int), return = 7

BTW, the runtime check that you see is due to the if() pointcut used to enable/disable the tracing.

Well I repeat I am still coming up to speed on some of the non-beginner spots in aspectj ... so I put a println in the before advice in Log4jExecutionTracing -- it never printed anything.

So I hacked it by removing the "staticinitialization(*) && " and it prints, and I get the weaveinfo output as before but in addition I get 

Join point 'constructor-execution(void com.AjlibTest.DummyObject.<init>())' in Type 'com.AjlibTest.DummyObject' (DummyObject.java:2) advised by before advice from 'com.AjlibTest.TestTraceAspect' (Log4jExecutionTracing.aj:17) [with runtime test]
Join point 'method-execution(int com.AjlibTest.DummyObject.someMethod(int))' in Type 'com.AjlibTest.DummyObject' (DummyObject.java:4) advised by before advice from 'com.AjlibTest.TestTraceAspect' (Log4jExecutionTracing.aj:17) [with runtime test]

So it defintely was not weaving the Log4jExecutionTracing before advice. For verboseness here is my hacked Log4jExecutionTracing and my aspect extending it:

/**
 * @author Ron Bodkin with code drawn from Matthew Webster's example posted to aj-users 1/28/2005
 */
package org.codehaus.ajlib.util.tracing;

/**
 * Typical idiom of log4j tracing of method execution: trace to a different logger for
 * each type.
 */
public abstract aspect Log4jExecutionTracing extends ExecutionTracing  {
protected interface Traced {}
public pointcut scope() : within(Traced+);
//TODO: test, e.g., what if staticinitialization of a type when tracing something?!
    //before(): staticinitialization(*) && inScope() {
    before(): inScope() {
     System.out.println("in log4j");
        String name = thisJoinPointStaticPart.getSignature().getDeclaringTypeName();
        tracer = new Log4jTracer(name);
}
}

package com.AjlibTest;
import org.codehaus.ajlib.util.tracing.Log4jExecutionTracing;
public aspect TestTraceAspect extends Log4jExecutionTracing {
    declare parents: com.AjlibTest.DummyObject implements Traced;
}

Since this posting is as long as the Magna Carta already here are my HelloWorld and DummyObject classes:

package com.AjlibTest;
public class HelloWorld
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
DummyObject ao = new DummyObject();
ao.someMethod(5);
}
}

package com.AjlibTest;
public class DummyObject
{
public int someMethod(int i)
{
return 7;
}
}

thanks,
owen

Hi Owen,

 

This indicates that the before advice is in fact applying in your test. Could it be that you aren't seeing log output because the Log4jExecutionTracing aspect traces to a log4j logger at debug level, and that you need to enable debug output in your log4j configuration?

Hi Owen,

 

Does compiling with -showWeaveInfo show whether your declare parents is or is not working?

Probably a syntactical error, the before() in Log4jExecutionTracing never gets executed, I bet my "declare parents" isn't right, first time I ever came across that, I guess I haven't been keeping up with aj1.5:

 

package com.AjlibTest;

import org.codehaus.ajlib.util.tracing.Log4jExecutionTracing;

public aspect TestTraceAspect extends Log4jExecutionTracing {

    declare parents: com.AjlibTest.DummyObject implements Traced;

}

 

my package looks like this:

./com/AjlibTest/DummyObject.java

./com/AjlibTest/HelloWorld.java

./com/AjlibTest/TestTraceAspect.aj

 

Anyone see my goof?

 

thanks,

owen

Hi Owen,

 

Traced is a protected interface that is defined within Log4jExecutionTracing itself. You just use the aspect by extending it and using declare parents to make the relevant classes you want to trace implement traced, as in:

 

public aspect MyLog4jExecutionTracing extends Log4jExecutionTracing {

     declare parents: com.bigboxco.myapp..* implements Traced;

}

With regards to ajlib:

 

There is a class Log4jExecutionTracing not covered in the unit tests and for which there are no examples of its usage. It uses a class called "Traced" that I don't see anywhere and I *think* that is at the core of my not comprehending how to use this class.

 

Basically if I have a test tracing aspect like this it works great (DummyObject is the class whose methods are to be traced):

 

package com.AjlibTest;

import org.codehaus.ajlib.util.tracing.ExecutionTracing;

public aspect TestTraceAspect extends ExecutionTracing

{

    public pointcut scope() : within(DummyObject);

    before(): scope()

    {

         System.out.println("Tracing");

    }

}

 

But if I change ExecutionTracing to Log4jExecutionTracing it doesn't weave anything (advice defined in com.AjlibTest.TestTraceAspect has not been applied [Xlint:adviceDidNotMatch]).

 

much appreciated,

Owen
