Package org.apache.shiro.aop

package org.apache.shiro.aop

Components used to support the framework's AOP/interception support classes.

As this package is a root-level package under org.apache.shiro, it contains AOP support classes useful for any AOP environment and/or function. Feature-dependent AOP classes (e.g. authorization, authentication, etc.) will use these classes as their base in their respective packages.

Package	Description
org.apache.shiro	This package primarily exists as a root classpath distinction, but it does contain two core classes widely used by applications, SecurityUtils and ShiroException.

Class	Description
AnnotationHandler	Base support class for implementations that reads and processes JSR-175 annotations.
AnnotationMethodInterceptor	MethodInterceptor that inspects a specific annotation on the method invocation before continuing its execution.
AnnotationResolver	Defines an AOP-framework-independent way of determining if an Annotation exists on a Method.
DefaultAnnotationResolver	Default AnnotationResolver implementation that merely inspects the MethodInvocation's target method, and returns targetMethod.getAnnotation(class).
MethodInterceptor	A MethodInterceptor intercepts a MethodInvocation to perform before or after logic (aka 'advice').
MethodInterceptorSupport	This class is an abstraction of AOP method interceptor behavior specific to Shiro that leaves AOP implementation specifics to be handled by subclass implementations.
MethodInvocation	3rd-party API independent representation of a method invocation.
