aspectj - handling a specific exception type -

i've defined 2 afterthrowing advices handle exceptions same pointcut.

@afterthrowing(pointcut="...", throwing="ex") public void method1(exception ex) {}   @afterthrowing(pointcut="...", throwing="ex") public void method2(gatewayexception ex) {} 

is there way me prevent generic method1 being executed if exception gatewayexception?

any ideas appreciated

c

it easiest check instance of exception inside advice body , return if it's of more specific exception type:

@afterthrowing(pointcut="...", throwing="ex") public void method1(exception ex) {     if (ex instanceof gatewayexception) {         return;     }     // handle more generic exception case }   @afterthrowing(pointcut="...", throwing="ex") public void method2(gatewayexception ex) {     // handle more specific gatewayexception } 

i know expected solution based on aspectj language construct, thing is, there's no such construct.
