NAME¶
Aspect::Pointcut::Highest - Pointcut for preventing recursive matching
SYNOPSIS¶
use Aspect;
# High-level creation
my $pointcut1 = highest;
# Manual creation
my $pointcut2 = Aspect::Pointcut::Highest->new;
DESCRIPTION¶
For aspects including timers and other Aspect::Advice::Around-based advice,
recursion can be significant problem.
The "highest" pointcut solves this problem by matching only on the
highest invocation of a function. If the function is called again recursively
within the first call, at any depth, the deeper calls will be not match and
the advice will not be executed.
