Interface WrappedMethodInvocation
- All Superinterfaces:
- Invocation, Joinpoint, MethodInvocation
public interface WrappedMethodInvocation
- extends MethodInvocation
Extends the AOP Alliance's
MethodInvocation interface with the concept of a method implementation.
The method implementation is the method as it is defined
on the class (object) being intercepted. This may the same as the
declared method, if the declaring class is the same as the
implementing class, but will in normal usage, not be. Typical usage of method
interception in Tie is for intercepting via interfaces - in this situation the
declared method has no implementation, and so the two Method objects cannot be
the same.
The common use case that requires knowledge of the implementing method is annotation
processing. There are situations where the presence (or absence) of a particular
annotation on the method implementation will affect the manner in which interception
is applied.
getMethodDeclaration
Method getMethodDeclaration()
- This method exists for orthogonality with
getMethodImplementation(),
but will always return the same value as MethodInvocation.getMethod().
getMethodImplementation
Method getMethodImplementation()
- Returns:
- A method defined on
Joinpoint.getThis(), that is the implementation
for getMethodDeclaration().
