Aspect Oriented :: Methodologies

abc: the AspectBench Compiler for AspectJ - The distribution of an optimising, extensible compiler for AspectJ, freely available under the LGPL. The abc project is a joint effort between the University of Oxford (UK), McGill University (Canada), and the University of Aarhus (Denmark). [Open source, LGPL]
Aspect Browser - A tool for Java (with optional Emacs support) which helps developers to find and visualise crosscutting concerns, using text matching. [Freeware]
AspectJ - Aspect-oriented Java extension, seamless, from Xerox PARC. Goal: to make aspect-oriented programming (AOP) technology available to a wide range of programmers. [Open Source, MPL]
AspectJ, 0.8b5: Real-world AOP tool simplifies OO development - Detailed review of the aspect-oriented Java extension AspectJ 0.8, by Rich Price, a senior staff engineer at CheckFree Corp.
Meta Description: [ A general-purpose Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) extension to Java, AspectJ enables the modularization of such crosscutting concerns as system-wide error-checking strategies, design patterns, synchronization policies, resource sharing, distribution concerns, and performance optimizations. AOP ... ]
Concerning AOP and Inheritance - Paper in PDF format which introduces the Java-based language Sally and compares it with AspectJ: interactions as opposed to method entry, named advices, advice overriding. Also compares aspects, conventional inheritance, and mixins.
DemeterJ - An adaptive programming language based on Java. The big sister of DJ.
DJ - Support for adaptive programming (dynamic structure-shy traversals and visitors) in pure Java.
EAOP tool - A research prototype for Event-based Aspect-Oriented Programming (EAOP) for Java.
HyperJ [IBM] - A Java tool supporting advanced Multi-Dimensional Separation of Concerns. [Freeware]
Meta Description: [ Make extensions to existing Java programs, integrate Java programs, and remodularize Java programs without having to modify, or even have, source code. ]
Macker - Helps enforce architectural rules (layering, tiering, and modularity) in Java code. It applies pattern-based access rules from XML rules files to compiled classes. [Open source, GPL]
Meta Description: [ A build-time architectural rule checker. Helps maintain consistent layering and modularity by checking references between classes against a user-specified rules file. Runs from Ant, JUnit, or a shell script. [GPL] ]
Sally - A general-purpose aspect language (GPAL) based on Java, with aspect reflection.
404
Specialisation Classes - Specialization classes are a Java language extension for integrating forms of adaptive behavior in an existing program. An adaptive class is defined by attaching a number of alternative implementations to a regular Java class, that complement the existing, default implementation. [Freeware]
