Interface JoinPoint.StaticPart

All Known Subinterfaces:
JoinPoint.StaticPart
All Known Implementing Classes:
JoinPointImpl.StaticPartImpl
Enclosing interface:
JoinPoint

public static interface JoinPoint.StaticPart

This helper object contains only the static information about a join point. It is available from the JoinPoint.getStaticPart() method, and can be accessed separately within advice using the special form thisJoinPointStaticPart.

If you are only interested in the static information about a join point, you should access it through this type for the best performance. This is particularly useful for library methods that want to do serious manipulations of this information, i.e.

 public class LoggingUtils {
     public static void prettyPrint(JoinPoint.StaticPart jp) {
         ...
     }
 }

 aspect Logging {
     before(): ... { LoggingUtils.prettyPrint(thisJoinPointStaticPart); }
 }
