Pointcut for all method invocations except from one class/interface

[tygl]

Hello,

I need to write pointcut expression, which catch all method calls except calls from one specific class/interface.

Someting like:
@Pointcut( execution(* foo.bar.update*(..) ) && !doNotAcceptMethodCallsFrom( foo.bar.evilClass* ) )

I'm using latest spring with AOP support and LTW.

I'm not sure if is this possible, but thank you for any advice.

Erm, just need to clarify why I have this problem. I have problem with aspect recursion which I described on stack owerflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8...loop-execution

Maybe is there another way, but I'm so new in AOP and I can not see it, for now atleast .

can u tell the class structure for the bar class and evilclass ,based on your question the pointcut will be any method starting with update*... in the bar object is your joint point ,so it will not select the evilclass .I think you need not use the second expression to do that.

Can u redefine the question in some way we can find the solution.

Expecting the relationship between bar and evilclasses.
