/** 
 * Subinterface of AOP Alliance Advice that allows additional interfaces
 * to be implemented by an Advice, and available via a proxy using that
 * interceptor. This is a fundamental AOP concept called introduction.
 *
 * 

Introductions are often mixins, enabling the building of composite * objects that can achieve many of the goals of multiple inheritance in Java. * *

Compared to {qlink IntroductionInfo}, this interface allows an advice to * implement a range of interfaces that is not necessarily known in advance. * Thus an {@link IntroductionAdvisor} can be used to specify which interfaces * will be exposed in an advised object. * * @author Rod Johnson * @since 1.1.1 * @see IntroductionInfo * @see IntroductionAdvisor */ public interface DynamicIntroductionAdvice extends Advice { /** * Does this introduction advice implement the given interface? * @param intf the interface to check * @return whether the advice implements the specified interface */ boolean implementsInterface(Class intf); }
