Java – @ AspectJ cuts into all methods in the package

I have this working code for a specific package, but I want to configure it for all controllers, services and Dao packages

> com. abc. xyz. content. controller > com. abc. xyz. content. service > com. abc. xyz. content. dao > com. abc. xyz. category. controller > com. abc. xyz. category. service > com. abc. xyz. category. dao

Wait This is the basic package of my project. Someone can help me how to do it so that it can be applied to all classes of my network project, including controllers. Thank you in advance

package com.abc.xyz.utilities;

import java.util.Arrays;

import org.apache.commons.logging.Log;
import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;
import org.aspectj.lang.JoinPoint;
import org.aspectj.lang.ProceedingJoinPoint;
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.AfterReturning;
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.AfterThrowing;
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Around;
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Aspect;
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Before;
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.pointcut;

@Aspect
@Component
public class LoggingAspect
{
    private Log log = LogFactory.getLog(this.getClass());

    @pointcut("execution(* com.abc.xyz.content.service..*(..))")
    protected void loggingOperation()
    {
    }

    @Before("loggingOperation()")
    @Order(1)
    public void logJoinPoint(JoinPoint joinPoint)
    {
    log.info("Signature declaring type : " + joinPoint.getSignature().getDeclaringTypeName());
    log.info("Signature name : " + joinPoint.getSignature().getName());
    log.info("Arguments : " + Arrays.toString(joinPoint.getArgs()));
    log.info("Target class : " + joinPoint.getTarget().getClass().getName());
    }

    @AfterReturning(pointcut = "loggingOperation()",returning = "result")
    @Order(2)
    public void logAfter(JoinPoint joinPoint,Object result)
    {
    log.info("Exiting from Method :" + joinPoint.getSignature().getName());
    log.info("Return value :" + result);
    }

    @AfterThrowing(pointcut = "execution(* com.abc.xyz.content.service..*(..))",throwing = "e")
    @Order(3)
    public void logAfterThrowing(JoinPoint joinPoint,Throwable e)
    {
    log.error("An exception has been thrown in " + joinPoint.getSignature().getName() + "()");
    log.error("Cause :" + e.getCause());
    }

    @Around("execution(* com.abc.xyz.content.service..*(..))")
    @Order(4)
    public Object logAround(ProceedingJoinPoint joinPoint) throws Throwable
    {
    log.info("The method " + joinPoint.getSignature().getName() + "() begins with " + Arrays.toString(joinPoint.getArgs()));
    try
    {
        Object result = joinPoint.proceed();
        log.info("The method " + joinPoint.getSignature().getName() + "() ends with " + result);
        return result;
    }
    catch (IllegalArgumentException e)
    {
        log.error("Illegal argument " + Arrays.toString(joinPoint.getArgs()) + " in " + joinPoint.getSignature().getName() + "()");
        throw e;
    }
    }

}

Solution

What about one of these alternatives?

A) General execution pointcuts and package restrictions:

execution(* *(..)) &&
(
    within(com.abc.xyz..controller..*) ||
    within(com.abc.xyz..service..*) ||
    within(com.abc.xyz..dao..*)
)

B) Encapsulation restriction execution pointcut:

execution(* com.abc.xyz..controller..*(..)) ||
execution(* com.abc.xyz..service..*(..)) ||
execution(* com.abc.xyz..dao..*(..))

I like B, by the way, just because it's a little shorter and easier to read As you may have guessed, the symbol means "any package or sub package", and the * after the expression means "any method in any class"
