Eclipse AspectJ Reviews & Product Details

What i like is the fact that a programming model is built into the tool itself.Generally its not easy to write aspect oriented code, but with eclipse aspectJ it becomes part of the team culture. Also, love the community built around it, right from tutorials to forums. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Steep learning curve. Also, debuggability becomes difficult,. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AspectJ is a very strong programming technique that allows to define pointcuts for cross-cutting concerns. It allows to define pre / post / around method hooks for validation, logging, tracing, exception handling, enriching / redacting input or output parameters etc. It is powerful, but should be used very carefully.

1. AspectJ hooks are usually defined by expert-level programmers and may be hidden from the mid-level programmer's eye. This can cause several issues like performance, unexpected behaviour (magic), uncertainty, etc

2. Due to the nature of pointcut hooks, AspectJ affects the code readability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The incredible versatility of the this tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lack of more advanced examples. However I was able to manage on my own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Able to decouple features common in all services like authentication, parameter validation and similar buisness logic features.

- Annotation based Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Debug might become harder or more confusing, when searching for bugs related to AOP implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We're a spring projects enthusiasts, we chose AspectJ over Spring AOP because AspectJ is a speed demon during runtime, nearly 10x faster than Spring AOP Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Build time over head as AspectJ requires a compiler of it's own Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a seemless experience working on Eclipse for AspectJ projects. Building the projects take a little time as this creates the woven files but it all depends on to the project size. Doing code and compiling the things easy and easily can navigate to different cutpoints.

Overall a good experience working on it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Project build time should be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It sometimes gets slow and takes more memory than expected Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Eclipse used to write java programs.It is used to auto compilation,auto correcting error and auto code modification.Eclipse used for web based applications.It is used in many companies to write java programs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Because of auto code modification we did not remember the syntax of the exact java programs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
