In the SPLAT-workshop at AOSD '07, we presented a new kind of join  
point called "local continuation join point" as the foundation of an  
aspect implementation of ASML's return code-idiom (very large C  
system). Other important components of our solution are the Prolog- 
based pointcut language, join point properties, annotations and  
generic advice. All of these are implemented in our aspect language  
for C called Aspicere2.

The paper can be found on http://www.aosd.net/workshops/splat/2007/ 
papers/adams.pdf, while one can freely download Aspicere2 from http:// 
users.ugent.be/~badams/aspicere2/.
