    • ordering

      int ordering
      Specify the priority ordering when multiple aspects are on a method.

      When multiple aspects are on a method they are nested. The highest ordering value will be the outer-most aspect, the lowest ordering will be the inner-most aspect.

      The outer-most aspect will have it's before executed first, followed by the before of the inner nested aspects ultimately down the invocation of the target method.

      The reverse ordering occurs for after with the outer-most aspect having it's after executed last.

      Returns:
      The ordering of this aspect. High value for outer-most aspect.
      Default:
      1000
