Foundations of AOP for J2EE Development covers a relatively new programming paradigm: aspect oriented programming (AOP). The concept of an aspect was originally defined in 1996 by Gregor Kiczales and his team at the Palo Alto Research Center (PARC), a subsidiary of Xerox in California.
The last part of the book is dedicated to the development of J2EE applications with AOP. J2EE is well-known for being a rich and somewhat complicated framework. The authors show how AOP can ease this task and how AOP benefits J2EE.
The concepts of AOP are presented independently of any particular implementation Covers all 4 major existing tools for AOP: AspectJ, JBoss AOP, AspectWerkz, JAC Covers the implementation of a technical aspect based on the Hibernate object/relational persistence framework, a J2EE application implemented with AspectJ, and applications of AOP in the domains of programming by contracts, program testing, and application management
