On Aspect-Oriented Technology and Object-Oriented Design Patterns
Ouafa Hachani, Daniel Bardou · 2003
Abstract. More and more works are done on design patterns and aspect-oriented programming. These works mainly propose to use aspect-oriented programming mechanisms to provide new implementations of objectoriented design patterns. This paper illustrates our own approach by presenting an aspect-oriented implementation of the GoF Strategy pattern, and claims implementation is not sufficient: aspect-orientation also needs to be considered at the design level in the description of design patterns. We also discuss different issues relative to the “aspectization ” of object-oriented design patterns. 1
