AOP

[sam jaff]

hi can anybody give me the steps in implementing aop in xml..
thanks in advance

[Ulf Dittmer]

XML is not a programming language. What problem are you trying to solve?

[sam jaff]

Actually i want to apply aop in BPEL(Business Process Execution Language)-building soa application, which is xml based...
need to know how i can deploy aspect in that...

[Ulf Dittmer]

Again: Aspects are a programming concept, whereas XML (and BPEL) are static data formats or descriptions.

So what, exactly, do you mean by "deploy aspect in that"? What is an example "aspect" that you're talking about?

[sam jaff]

trying to provide crosscutting concern at BPEL engine.

[Ulf Dittmer]

So you want to write an aspect that is configured through a BPEL extension you will create, and which will affect a BPEL engine that you will modify to work that way? Sounds like quite a task; does it make sense, given that BPEL hasn't exactly taken the world by storm?

[William Brogden]

Presumably you know about the AspectJ project, right?

A search for "Aspectj xml" found lots of hits.

Which BPEL toolkit are you using?
