Zusammenfassung:To support adding functionality to applications at a layer of abstraction above language-specific implementations of AOP, a language for implementing AOP facilitates runtime monitoring and analysis of an application independent of the language of the application. Aspects can be created for applications written in any supported language. Program code underlying implementations of aspects can be executed based on detecting triggering events during execution of the application. Routines written with the AOP language comprise event-based aspect code triggers that indicate an event which may occur during execution of the application and the associated aspect code to be executed. An agent deployed to a runtime engine to monitor the application detects events and evaluates contextual information about the detected events against the aspect triggers to determine if aspect code should be executed to perform further monitoring and analysis of the executing application.
