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..*(..))) {}
