How to get arguments passed to method that called this method?

by

I don’t believe this is possible using the standard Java API.

What you could do is to use AspectJ, place a point-cut at the calling method, save the arguments, place a point-cut at the called method and pass on the arguments.

Another option (slightly more advanced) is to use a custom, bytecode-rewriting, class loader that saves the original arguments, and passes them on as extra arguments to the next method. This would probably take a day or two to implement. Suitable frameworks are BCEL or ASM.
