Get method arguments using Spring AOP?

Question

I am using Spring AOP and have below aspect:

@Aspect
public class LoggingAspect {

    @Before(\"execution(* com.mkyong.customer.bo.CustomerBo.addCustomer(..

If you have to log all args or your method have one argument, you can simply use getArgs like described in previous answers.

If you have to log a specific arg, you can annoted it and then recover its value like this :

@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Target(ElementType.PARAMETER)
public @interface Data {
 String methodName() default "";
}

@Aspect
public class YourAspect {

 @Around("...")
 public Object around(ProceedingJoinPoint point) throws Throwable {
  Method method = MethodSignature.class.cast(point.getSignature()).getMethod();
  Object[] args = point.getArgs();
  StringBuilder data = new StringBuilder();
    Annotation[][] parameterAnnotations = method.getParameterAnnotations();
    for (int argIndex = 0; argIndex < args.length; argIndex++) {
        for (Annotation paramAnnotation : parameterAnnotations[argIndex]) {
            if (!(paramAnnotation instanceof Data)) {
                continue;
            }
            Data dataAnnotation = (Data) paramAnnotation;
            if (dataAnnotation.methodName().length() > 0) {
                Object obj = args[argIndex];
                Method dataMethod = obj.getClass().getMethod(dataAnnotation.methodName());
                data.append(dataMethod.invoke(obj));
                continue;
            }
            data.append(args[argIndex]);
        }
    }
 }
}

Examples of use :

public void doSomething(String someValue, @Data String someData, String otherValue) {
    // Apsect will log value of someData param
}

public void doSomething(String someValue, @Data(methodName = "id") SomeObject someData, String otherValue) {
    // Apsect will log returned value of someData.id() method
}
