[aspectc-user] Problem with introducing methods ...

[Masoud Mansouri-Samani]

Hi,

I have a problem with introducing methods in the following simple 
example. I am using ac++ version 0.9pre1 on Linux. Here is the command 
line and results:

  $ ac++ -a test.ah -p . -c test.cpp
  test.ah:12: error: invalid member declaration near token `*'
  test.ah:17: error: `Employer' has no member named `getAdmin'

Where test.ah is:

  class Employer {
  };

  class Person {
  public:
    Employer employer;
  };

  aspect Test
  {
    private:
      advice "Employer": Person *admin;
 
    public:
      advice "Employer": Person *getAdmin() { return admin; }
      advice "Person": Person *getEmployersAdmin() {
        return employer.getAdmin();
      }
  };

And test.cpp is:

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
  return 0;
}

What am I doing wrong? What is wrong with the introduction of "Person 
*admin" on line 12?
Why does it complain about getAdmin() not being a member of Employer on 
line 17. I've just introduced it!

I would appreciate any help on solving this problem.

Regards

Masoud
