Book Reviews of AspectJ Cookbook

Book Review: AspectJ
Summary: 2 Stars

I would say that this is a survival guide more than a cookbook for the people who interested to try the AOP. This is book with a well structure to express its contents by problem-solution-discussion fomat. Reader can find what he need quickly from the book.

For the people who would try AOP the first thing they may concern is the scope of the Aspect J and how weaving the Aspect J into their current application like JSP, Servlet, Java application and also the compatibility with the IDE like Eclipse. The book first introduce these things to give a outlook of the ability of the Aspect J and then it introduce the main concern about capturing join points for the weaving the Aspect J to the application. However, it may be not easy to understand how the capturing join points can be used to solve the programming problem before you read the chapter 17 - 23 which about the application of the Aspect J. In 17 to 19 chapter it show how to use Aspect J to implement the common design pattern. In the final chapter it introduce the Aspect oriented design pattern and you may get the concept about AOP in this chapter

I suggest that the reader may skimming the chapter 17 - 23 first to get the outlook about the concept of AOP and solving problems by AOP.

Summary of AspectJ Cookbook

When Object Oriented programming (OO) first appeared, it was a revelation. OO gave developers the ability to create software that was more flexible and robust, but as time went on and applications became more sophisticated, too, certain areas of "traditional" OO architectures were found wanting. Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) addresses those issues by extending the OO approach even further. Many developers are interested in AOP--especially in AspectJ, the open source extension of the Java programming language that explicitly supports the AOP approach. Yet, although AspectJ is included with Eclipse, the increasingly popular open source IDE for Java, finding a practical and non-theoretical way to learn this language and other AOP tools and techniques has been a real problem. Until now. The AspectJ Cookbook offers a hands-on solution--in fact, several--with a wide variety of code recipes for solving day-to-day design and coding problems using AOP's unique approach. AOP allows the global properties of a program to determine how it's compiled into an executable program. Before AOP, important program design decisions were difficult to capture in actual code. Instead, the implementation of those design decisions--known as "aspects"--were scattered throughout, resulting in "tangled" code that was hard to develop and maintain. AOP has been compared to the manufacturing of cloth, in which threads are automatically interwoven. Without AOP, programmers must stitch the threads by hand. The AspectJ Cookbook shows readers why, and how, common Java development problems can be solved by using AOP techniques. With our popular problem-solution-discussion format, the book presents real world examples to demonstrate that AOP is more than just a concept; it's a development process that will benefit users in an immediate and visible manner. If you're interested in how AOP is changing the way software is developed, and how you can use AspectJ to make code more modular, easier to develop, maintain, evolve and deploy, this is the book that really delivers.
