Can we enable or disable Aspect based on value of any flag or through configuration file?

Question

I have added following dependency in pom.xml

            org.springframework
                     


        

Answer 1

It appears Spring does not support AspectJ's if() pointcut primitive.

Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'foo': Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is org.aspectj.weaver.tools.UnsupportedPointcutPrimitiveException: Pointcut expression 'execution(* doSomething(..)) && if()' contains unsupported pointcut primitive 'if'
