SD West 2004 Thursday (morning) Update
I've spent the morning attending classes on AspectJ presented by Ron Bodkin, formerly a member of the original aspect implementation team at Xerox PARC. I've been intentionally ignoring the technology of aspects for a while now, waiting for the technology and tools to mature to the point where I felt that they are usable in production applications. After seeing this morning's presentations, I'd say it's time for me to jump on board the aspect bandwagon. The capabilities of AspectJ and the support provided in tools like Eclipse and JBuilder are excellent (the Eclipse Aspect Visualizer tool is really cool).
BTW, AspectJ is just the Java implementation of aspects. There are a number of other language implementations available (Ruby, Python), but the maturity of the tools vary.
For the SD West presentations, and others, see the New Aspects web site.
