Aspect declarations are supported by the org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Aspect annotation. The declaration:

     @Aspect
     public class Foo {}
         

Is equivalent to:

     public aspect Foo {}
         

To specify an aspect an aspect instantiation model (the default is singleton), provide the perclause as the @Aspect value. For example:

     @Aspect("perthis(execution(* abc..*(..)))")
     public class Foo {}
         

is equivalent to...

     public aspect Foo perthis(execution(* abc..*(..))) {}
