AspectJ pointcut on constructor object

Question

I need to inject few methods to every initialized object using AspectJ.

I thought using this :

pointcut vistaInjection(Object o)
    : initializati         


        

Answer 1

Have you tried

pointcut vistaInjection(Object o)
    : (initialization(*.new()) || (initialization(*.new(..)))
    && target(o)
    && !within(objectAspect);

i.e. calling .new() on anything and allowing no and some arguments.

Note - you probably don't want to pick up all object creations.. what are you planning on doing with them!
