## Eclipse AspectJ Reviews
  ### 1. I needed AJ for my research project. Good experience, but I wasn't able to do everything I needed.

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Michaela B. | IT courses lector/trainer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 30, 2021

**What do you like best about Eclipse AspectJ?**

Tool support, learnability, ease of use.

**What do you dislike about Eclipse AspectJ?**

I wasn't able to weave into Java Swing graphical components. I needed it in my DEAL project: https://git.kpi.fei.tuke.sk/michaela.bacikova/DEAL/-/wikis/home
There are handlers for each component but I wasn't able to weave into all Swing components and use their methods or change their properties. It was a long time ago, so I can't remember the exact methods/properties - but the solution was to weave into JVM itself and that would make the project unusable.

**Recommendations to others considering Eclipse AspectJ:**

I gladly recommend :)

**What problems is Eclipse AspectJ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Problems I described earlier. Benefits - able to weave into the existing Java app or program without affecting the original code and also being able to have the specific code (that would otherwise be scattered through the whole code) in one place.

  ### 2. 2 years I used to use AspectJ

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Airlines/Aviation | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 15, 2021

**What do you like best about Eclipse AspectJ?**

To help separate cross-cutting concerns from the business logic.

**What do you dislike about Eclipse AspectJ?**

Nothing I can mention. Everything looks good for me.

**What problems is Eclipse AspectJ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

To help separate cross-cutting concerns from the business logic. Code become more clear and you concentrate on business logic. AOP programming has its benefits.
