User development, A new message was posted in the thread "Detecting annotated classes": http://community.jboss.org/message/522825#522825 Author : Marko Mrvelj Profile : http://community.jboss.org/people/markom Message: -------------------------------------------------------------- Hi All!   I am a noob to AOP. I need to create a setup where I need to detect specific annotation inside classes during EAR deployment. Basically I need to provide a mean for another developer to mark certain methods inside class, and then to be able to find all marked methods deployed on JBoss AS.   I don't know if this is possible with AOP.   For example:   Annotation:   @Target( { ElementType.METHOD })(a)Retention(value=RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)public @interface MarkMe { }     Annotated class:   public class TestClass {     @MarkMe     public void testMethod1() {         System.out.println("Invoked testMethod1");        } }     Now I can create interceptor :   public class TestInterceptor implements Interceptor {       @Override    public String getName() {        return "TestInterceptor";    }       @Override    public Object invoke(Invocation invocation) throws Throwable {        System.out.println("INSIDE INTERCEPTOR");        return invocation.invokeNext();    }   }     to trigger during invocation of the method:   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <aop xmlns="urn:jboss:aop-beans:1.0">   <interceptor name="TestInt" class="TestInterceptor"/>     <bind pointcut="execution(public void *->@MarkMe())">     <interceptor-ref name="TestInt"/>   </bind> </aop> However is it possible to detect during deployment of the class that it has been annotated? I thought to use +has+ but it seems that it is only for refinement of the expression. Could somebody provide me with some hints how to do this? -------------------------------------------------------------- To reply to this message visit the message page: http://community.jboss.org/message/522825#522825
