Constructor Detail

### TypePatternClassFilter

    public TypePatternClassFilter()

  Creates a new instance of the `TypePatternClassFilter` class.

  This is the JavaBean constructor; be sure to set the `typePattern` property, else a no doubt fatal `IllegalStateException` will be thrown when the `matches(Class)` method is first invoked.

### TypePatternClassFilter

    public TypePatternClassFilter(String typePattern)

  Create a fully configured `TypePatternClassFilter` using the given type pattern.

  Parameters:
    `typePattern` - the type pattern that AspectJ weaver should parse
  Throws:
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if the supplied `typePattern` is `null` or is recognized as invalid

Method Detail

### setTypePattern

    public void setTypePattern(String typePattern)

  Set the AspectJ type pattern to match.

  Examples include: `org.springframework.beans.*` This will match any class or interface in the given package. `org.springframework.beans.ITestBean+` This will match the `ITestBean` interface and any class that implements it.

  These conventions are established by AspectJ, not Spring AOP.

  Parameters:
    `typePattern` - the type pattern that AspectJ weaver should parse
  Throws:
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if the supplied `typePattern` is `null` or is recognized as invalid

### getTypePattern

    public String getTypePattern()

### matches

    public boolean matches(Class clazz)

  Should the pointcut apply to the given interface or target class?

  Specified by:
    `matches` in interface `ClassFilter`
  Parameters:
    `clazz` - candidate target class
  Returns:
    whether the advice should apply to this candidate target class
  Throws:
    `IllegalStateException` - if no `setTypePattern(String)` has been set
