Building frameworks in aspectJ

Bart Vanhaute, Bart De Win, Bart De Decker · 2001

The combination of aspect-oriented programming and framework technology boosts software reuse and brings separation of concerns to a new, more generic level. On the one hand, AOP enables the separate implementation of crosscutting concerns. Frameworks, on the other hand, allow us to reuse and customize a particular implementation in different applications. By means of a security example, we show the ease and power of the AOP language AspectJ to analyze and design a solution in terms of a framework. We also suggest a number of improvements.
