Re: [abc-users] Determine a basic block

Hello Amjad,

I am planning to do something similar. A block which can be matched by
a pointcut expression but can also expose arguments into the advice.

I imagine something like:

public void foo() {
    ...
    block(a, "hallo", b) {
        // Block statments
    }
    ...
}

Because I only worked with the frontend's of abc I have some
difficulties to start with the block-pointcut. Perhaps you can
describe your proceeding to give me some help

Thank you in advance.

Greetings,
Thomas
