Spring AOP

Learn to use Spring AOP, aspect injection. and AspectJ integration

Spring provides powerful support for Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP), via

  • Spring Advisors
  • Dependency Injection for Aspects
  • Integration with AspectJ
In this session you will learn to use Spring AOP in real-world settings. We'll start with the basics of programmatic pointcuts, advice, and joint points. Then, we'll integrate these into the application Spring-style, using Dependency Injection.

With the basics out of the way, we'll move to meatier questions, including:

  • How (and when) should I step up to AspectJ?
  • How are Aspects implemented, and what are the performance implications?
  • What are the alternatives to Aspects?

Attendees will get more out of this presentation if they have a basic knowledge of Spring and Dependency Injection.
