|  | This chapter consists of very short snippets of AspectJ code, | 
|  | typically pointcuts, that are particularly evocative or useful. | 
|  | This section is a work in progress. | 
|  | </p><p> | 
|  | Here's an example of how to enfore a rule that code in the | 
|  | java.sql package can only be used from one particular package in | 
|  | your system. This doesn't require any access to code in the | 
|  | java.sql package. | 
|  | </p><pre class="programlisting"> | 
|  | /* Any call to methods or constructors in java.sql */ | 
|  | pointcut restrictedCall(): | 
|  | call(* java.sql.*.*(..)) || call(java.sql.*.new(..)); | 
|  |  | 
|  | /* Any code in my system not in the sqlAccess package */ | 
|  | pointcut illegalSource(): | 
|  | within(com.foo..*) && !within(com.foo.sqlAccess.*); | 
|  |  | 
|  | declare error: restrictedCall() && illegalSource(): | 
|  | "java.sql package can only be accessed from com.foo.sqlAccess"; | 
|  | </pre><p>Any call to an instance of a subtype of AbstractFacade whose class is | 
|  | not exactly equal to AbstractFacade:</p><pre class="programlisting"> | 
|  | pointcut nonAbstract(AbstractFacade af): | 
|  | call(* *(..)) | 
|  | && target(af) | 
|  | && !if(af.getClass() == AbstractFacade.class); | 
|  | </pre><p> If AbstractFacade is an abstract class or an interface, then every | 
|  | instance must be of a subtype and you can replace this with: </p><pre class="programlisting"> | 
|  | pointcut nonAbstract(AbstractFacade af): | 
|  | call(* *(..)) | 
|  | && target(af); | 
|  | </pre><p> Any call to a method which is defined by a subtype of | 
|  | AbstractFacade, but which isn't defined by the type AbstractFacade itself: | 
|  | </p><pre class="programlisting"> | 
|  | pointcut callToUndefinedMethod(): | 
|  | call(* AbstractFacade+.*(..)) | 
|  | && !call(* AbstractFacade.*(..)); | 
|  | </pre><p> The execution of a method that is defined in the source code for a | 
|  | type that is a subtype of AbstractFacade but not in AbstractFacade itself: | 
|  | </p><pre class="programlisting"> | 
|  | pointcut executionOfUndefinedMethod(): | 
|  | execution(* *(..)) | 
|  | && within(AbstractFacade+) | 
|  | && !within(AbstractFacade) |
