AOP isn't part of Java, it is an ugly hack that someone bolted onto the outsides of it. Seriously. You write your Java code, you compile it, and then in the night the evil AOP pixies sneak in and slip chunks of bytecode into your compiled classes.

The library tomh linked to is not a part of the Scala language or the standard library.
