    <p>I am trying to find a reasonably mature/stable and freely available (preferably open-source) library for doing AOP in .NET. I've been searching around a bit and found the products below; however, most of them seem dead:</p> <ul> <li><p><a href="http://www.sharpcrafters.com/postsharp" rel="noreferrer"><strong>PostSharp</strong></a> &mdash; this is the AOP solution usually recommended for .NET, however it's a commercial product and thus some use restrictions apply. (However, it seems to be sort-of freely available for personal or open-source projects.)</p></li> <li><p><a href="http://www.springframework.net/" rel="noreferrer"><strong>Spring.NET</strong></a> &mdash; not exclusively about AOP, so it's probably too powerful if one only wants to do AOP. (?)</p></li> <li><p><a href="http://entlib.codeplex.com/" rel="noreferrer"><strong>Policy Injection Application Block</strong></a> &mdash; being from Microsoft, I would expect this to be at least maintained.</p></li> <li><p><a href="http://www.castleproject.org/container/index.html" rel="noreferrer"><strong>Castle Windsor</strong></a> together with <a href="http://www.castleproject.org/projects/dynamicproxy/" rel="noreferrer"><strong>DynamicProxy</strong></a> &mdash; not primarily an AOP library, but apparently it can be used for that purpose.</p></li> <li><p><a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/aspectsharp/" rel="noreferrer"><strong>Aspect#</strong></a> &mdash; this seems quite dead to me.</p></li> <li><p><a href="http://aspectdotnet.codeplex.com/" rel="noreferrer"><strong>Aspect.NET</strong></a> &mdash; this also seems quite dead to me.</p></li> <li><p><strong>NAop</strong> &mdash; apparently no longer supported.</p></li> <li><p><a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/aopnet/" rel="noreferrer"><strong>AOP.NET</strong></a> &mdash; this was supposed to be the successor to NAop, and also looks like it died a while ago.</p></li> </ul> <p>There's probably even more. From the above list I gather that the only real options for doing AOP on .NET is PostSharp (even though it's a commercial product), Spring.NET, Microsoft's Policy Injection Application Block, or perhaps Windsor.</p> <p>Did I forget any major option?</p> <hr> <p><em>See also the question <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/470535/suggestions-for-open-source-aspect-oriented-library-for-c">Suggestions for open source aspect-oriented library for C#</a> here on StackOverflow. I posted a new question because I'm specifically interested in the state of development/maintenance of various AOP solutions for .NET.</em></p>

    1. COGood question, I'd love to know the latest and greatest on this most interesting topic, that I haven't had a chance to get into. But please, increase the font size of the footnote, even my monitor is squinting.

    2. COThis stuff was developed a *long* time ago, .NET is almost 10 years old already. Avoid confusing *dead* with *done* or "no longer interesting" for FOSS. It isn't dead if somebody is still paying the hosting fees.

    3. CO@Hans Passant: Sorry for being too lax with terminology, I can later edit my question if this seems important. But I would prefer that answers to my question focus on what is active / up-to-date / in widespread use / etc., not on what is dead / obsolete / no longer interesting / whatever.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
