Spring AOP Annotations Configuration

To configure aspect annotations in Spring, you first need to enable AspectJ auto-proxy in the configuration file. This can be done by adding the following content to the configuration file.

<aop:aspectj-autoproxy/>

Next, add the @Aspect annotation on the aspect class to designate it as an aspect class, and then define the pointcut and advice methods in the aspect class. For example:

@Aspect
@Component
public class MyAspect {
    
    @Pointcut("execution(* com.example.service.*.*(..))")
    public void serviceMethods() {}

    @Before("serviceMethods()")
    public void beforeServiceMethod(JoinPoint joinPoint) {
        System.out.println("Before executing service method: " + joinPoint.getSignature().getName());
    }

    @AfterReturning(pointcut = "serviceMethods()", returning = "result")
    public void afterReturningServiceMethod(JoinPoint joinPoint, Object result) {
        System.out.println("After returning from service method: " + joinPoint.getSignature().getName());
    }

    @AfterThrowing(pointcut = "serviceMethods()", throwing = "exception")
    public void afterThrowingFromServiceMethod(JoinPoint joinPoint, Exception exception) {
        System.out.println("After throwing from service method: " + joinPoint.getSignature().getName());
    }
}

In the example above, the @Pointcut annotation defines a pointcut that matches all methods in the com.example.service package using the expression execution(* com.example.service.*.*(..)). Various advice methods are then defined using annotations such as @Before, @AfterReturning, and @AfterThrowing.

Finally, make sure that the configuration file has scanned the package where the aspect class is located, so that the Spring container can automatically recognize and apply aspect annotations.
