Aspect Oriented Programming

• Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) enables modularization of cross-cutting concerns– Separation of Concerns principle – no code tangling– 1:1 principle – no code scattering

Cross-Cutting Concerns Examples

• Logging and Tracing• Transaction Management• Security• Caching• Error Handling• Performance Monitoring• Custom Business Rules

System Evolution: Conventional

How AOP Works

1. Write your mainline application logic2. Write aspects to implement cross-cutting

concerns3. Bind it all together

System Evolution: AOP Based

Leading AOP Technologies

• AspectJ– 1995, original AOP technology– Offers a full Aspect Oriented Programming language– Modifies byte code to add aspects into your application!

Leading AOP Technologies (2)

• Spring AOP– Uses dynamic proxies to add aspects into your application– Only spring beans can be advised– Uses some of AspectJ expression syntax

Core AOP Concepts

• Join Point– A point of execution of a program such as method call or field

assignment

• Pointcut– An expression that selects one or more Join Points

• Advice– Code to be executed at a Join Point that has been selected by a

Pointcut

• Aspect– A module that encapsulates Pointcuts and Advice

Spring AOP Example

• Business logic:

public class SimpleService { … public List getCustomerOrders(long operatorId, long customerId) { return customerDao.getOrders(customerId); } …}

Spring AOP Example (2)

• Performance tracing aspect:

Spring AOP Example (3)

Configure the Aspect as a Bean:

<beans>

<aop:aspectj-autoproxy> <aop:include name=“performanceTracer” /> </aop:aspectj-autoproxy>

<bean id=“performanceTracer” class=“com.foo.bar.PerformanceTracer” />

</beans>

Advice Types

• @Around• @Before• @After• @AfterReturning• @AfterThrowing
