AspectJ: parameter binding with 'args()' for methods with multiple parameters

I am having some trouble creating a before aspect for a method that has multiple parameters.

public class Sample {
    public boolean myCall(String s, String s1, String s3, ByteBuffer bytes, int i, int g) {
        System.out.println("Calling real sample");
    }
}

This aspect does not match. I only need to use the ByteBuffer parameter in the override code.

pointcut sampleCall(ByteBuffer bytes) :
    execution(boolean com.example.Sample.myCall (..)) && args(bytes);

before(ByteBuffer bytes) : sampleCall(bytes) {
    System.out.println("Before sample");
}
Solution

  • Actually finally got it to work with 

    pointcut sampleCall(ByteBuffer bytes) :
    execution(boolean com.example.Sample.myCall(String, String, String, ByteBuffer, ..))
    && args(String, String, String, bytes, ..);

before(ByteBuffer bytes) : sampleCall(bytes) {
    System.out.println("Before sample");
}
