Interface JoinPoint

All Superinterfaces:

StaticJoinPoint

public interface JoinPoint
extends StaticJoinPoint

Implements the join point concept, e.g. defines a well defined point in the program flow.

Provides access to runtime type information (RTTI), is therefore significantly slower than the usage of the StaticJoinPoint interface.
