Title

Aspect-Oriented Programming using AspectJ

Abstract

This talk provides an introduction to the ideas behind aspect-oriented programming (AOP), and then illustrates these ideas using the AspectJ tool suite. Attendees will learn how to recognise a problem or requirement that may be best addressed using aspect-oriented programming techniques, how to think about solving that problem in AOP terms, and how to begin adopting AspectJ in their own projects. During the talk, Adrian will also give a demonstration of the AspectJ Development Tools (AJDT) for Eclipse.
