Hi all just wondering will the next hype be aspect oriented
programming.
I was reading through this link and just thought about it

http://www.geocities.com/aspectdotnet/


There was a lot of goings on with aspects in the Java community three years ago and I haven't seen any tangible results. I've yet to see a job spec requiring aspects or open-source software that makes use of aspects either.

OO was hyped beyond belief but only really reached mass appeal with Visual Studio C++ and Java. I guess aspects will need something similar.

Also I didn't think the article on the link made a very good case for aspects anyway. The problems it presents could be solved much better with proper implementations using design patterns. A far better example for aspects is exception handling. Why should I as a developer of classes be concerned with how exceptions are handled? That is something which can be applied across the classes beyond the functional design of the system.

Just my thoughts.
