AdviceKind enum

The five kinds of aspect advice, one per annotation, listed in the order they nest inside one aspect.

Generated code tags each AspectAdvice with its kind, and the container uses it to decide how the advice runs (before the call, after it, around it) and in which order. Within one aspect, an earlier kind wraps a later one: around, then before, after, afterReturning, afterThrowing; advice of the same kind keeps declaration order. Applications meet it only when reading the advice of an aspect or writing an AspectAdvice by hand.

// The @Before advice method `before` of AuditAspect.
AspectAdvice<AuditAspect>(
  kind: AdviceKind.before,
  pointcut: 'calculator()',
  methodName: 'before',
  invoke: (aspect, joinPoint, _, _) => aspect.before(joinPoint),
);

Spring (Java):

// ReflectiveAspectJAdvisorFactory sorts advice methods by
// Around, Before, After, AfterReturning, AfterThrowing.
