Help with pointcut

csr1978 Dec 2, 2008 2:46 PM

Hi,

I have a pointcut which intercepts all the method calls in thin package. Here is my pointcut:

<bind pointcut="all(com.gm.tnt.ds.thin.*)">
 <interceptor class="org.jboss.aspect.custom.MyMethodInterceptor"/>
 </bind>

I want to modify my pointcut to include all the classes in tnt package so i tried with:

<bind pointcut="all(com.gm.tnt.*.*.*)">

This didn't work. Could anyone please let me know how to acheive this?

Thanks,
Srikanth.

all(com.gm.tnt..)

should work, although I think that is aop 2.0.0 only:

But doesnt the doc say that it wont work?

.. Is used to specify any number of parameters in an constructor or method expression. .. following a package-name is used to specify all classes from within a given package but not within sub-packages. e.g org.acme.. matches org.acme.Foo and org.acme.Bar, but it does not match org.acme.sub.SubFoo.

I thought you wanted to restrict to the package and not sub-packages.

If you want to intercept everything in the package and sub-packages this should work:
all(com.gm.tnt.*)
