Spring Advisors
Dependency Injection for Aspects
Integration with AspectJ

In this session you will learn to use Spring AOP in real-world settings. We'll start with the basics of programmatic pointcuts, advice, and joint points. Then, we'll integrate these into the application Spring-style, using Dependency Injection.

With the basics out of the way, we'll move to meatier questions, including:

How (and when) should I step up to AspectJ?
How are Aspects implemented, and what are the performance implications?
What are the alternatives to Aspects?

Attendees will get more out of this presentation if they have a basic knowledge of Spring and Dependency Injection.
