Resolving class metadata

[mikezzz]

Hi,

I am currently experimenting with JBoss-AOP and the annotation/metadata support. I have noticed that for MethodInvocations the Class metadata is not part of path that is used to resolved the metadata. See the code from MethodInvocation.java:

public Object getMetaData(Object group, Object attr) {
 Object val = super.getMetaData(group, attr);
 if (val != null) return val;

 if (getAdvisor() != null) {
 val = getAdvisor().getMethodMetaData().resolve(this, group, attr);
 if (val != null) return val;
 }

 if (getAdvisor() != null) {
 val = getAdvisor().getDefaultMetaData().resolve(this, group, attr);
 if (val != null) return val;
 }

 return null;
}

I am wondering if there is a reason for this? If not, let me know and I will post a patch to include it in the resolution path.

Hi

I had the exact same question before.
Take a look at the following thread:
