Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) is a software development paradigm used to separate cross-cutting concerns from the main business logic.
AOP allows for enhancing the functionality of an application and handling crosscutting concerns by introducing aspects without changing the original code.
The main function of AOP is to reduce code duplication, improve code maintainability, and encourage code reusability.
AOP can assist developers in better understanding and maintaining code, thus improving overall code quality.
AOP can be used to implement cross-cutting concerns such as logging, transaction management, permission control, and performance monitoring.
AOP is typically implemented using either proxy pattern or byte code enhancement technology.
