  • Should We Rely on Language Constraints or Responsibility?

    Bruce Eckel, Michael Feathers, Niclas Nilsson, Keith Braithwaite, and others on the question: should languages be fully flexible, allowing the developers to tweak them as they like, and trusting they will be responsible in their work, or should there be clear constraints set in the language from its design phase to avoid mistakes that create bad code, hard to maintain or to read?

  • Google Guice 2.0: Enhanced Capabilities, Less Boilerplate

  • Article: Fetching strategy implementation in a J2EE application using AOP

    In this article Manjunath R. Naganna introduces a strategy for overriding the default fetching pattern in the Repository/DAO class with a different fetching pattern based on the specific use case as defined with Aspect Oriented Programming. Aspect helps in deciding which fetching strategy needs to be used in a particular business use case.

  • Ramnivas Laddad on Making AOP Choices With AspectJ and Spring AOP

    Spring AOP/AspectJ combination offers many choices, whether they are AOP system, syntax or weaving related options, and a clear understanding of all those choices is important to apply them pragmatically when using Aspects in enterprise applications. Ramnivas Laddad said just one kind of AOP won't fit all applications and choosing the right combination will help developers be successful with AOP.

  • Article: Workflow Orchestration Using Spring AOP and AspectJ

    This article provides a practical example of light-weight workflow orchestration using Spring AOP and AspectJ.

  • Aspects: An Easy Tool for Annotation Handling?

    While many think of Aspects for cross-cutting concerns such as transaction management, persistence and role based security, another key value for them has been as an enabler for Annotations for ordinary projects. Using Aspects as a way to implement annotation handlers is a different way to think of them than as the traditional architect's "cross cutting concerns" view.

  • John Heintz on Adding Behavior to Java Annotations

    Custom annotations are a great way to add common reusable behavior to Java applications. John Heintz from New Aspects discussed at the recent No Fluff Just Stuff (NFJS) Java Symposium, the design techniques for adding behavior to Java Annotations.

  • Aspect Oriented Programming for Silverlight
