The requirements for separating business rule connectors show that an aspect-oriented approach is needed, since aspects are ideal for encapsulating the crosscutting connector code. Some contributions show that the AOP reduces dependencies and coupling; thus, best reusing is achieved and maintenance efforts reduced. However, other shortcomings appear directly associated with the nature of the connections and the limitations of the AO languages such as AspectJ. The focus of this paper is the problem of connecting the business rules to the core functionality in OO software. Therefore, this work outlines to explore, propose and experiment the design and implementation of aspectual connector with Spring AOP Framework. Spring AOP mechanisms are very different from AspectJ, and then, the connectors can be more flexible, easier to maintain, and more reusable.
