Congrats to Adrian Colyer, Andy Clement, George Harley, & Matthew Webster. They have just released their book: “Eclipse AspectJ”.
The book has examples which use real world technology. For example some of the projects use Hibernate and Spring and you can see how AOP can really help you out.
I’m pleased to say that the book “Eclipse AspectJ” (http://tinyurl.com/5enrc) is now shipping.
As well as comprehensive coverage of the AspectJ language, we use AJDT to teach and demonstrate both AJDT and AspectJ itself (a technique we have found works well when we give our talks and tutorials). The book has a running example of a simple insurance application that builds to eventually include full Hibernate and Spring integration.
The insurance application and many other samples are available for download as Eclipse projects via an update site. This will be on the Addison-Wesley site as soon as possible, and in the meantime we have mirrored it on the aspectprogrammer site: see http://www.aspectprogrammer.org/eclipseaspectj for install instructions.
You can see a full table of contents and download a sample chapter from:

We hope you enjoy the book. Feedback is always welcome, and reviews posted to Amazon or B&N would be great too.
Thanks,
Adrian Colyer, Andy Clement, George Harley, & Matthew Webster.
