[Springframework-developer] Bean not advised because another dependency grabs it first?

[James C. <jim...@do...>]

I'm experiencing a problem with the order that my beans are wired together.
I have an SAO bean (id=SecuritySAO) and it is a singleton. 

I want this bean to be advised by a BeanNameAutoProxyCreator so it will be
control transactions.

I also want this bean to be wired into another BeanPostProcessor class I
wrote called SAOAware.

The problem is that the SecuritySAO bean is created initially be the
SAOAware bean because it is a property of the latter. This means that the
AutoProxy bean has not yet had an opportunity to work its magic on the bean
and proxy it.

When I use the SAOAware bean, the SecuritySAO object is not proxied and not
weaved into the transation interceptor. I have tried to use the depends-on
to cause the AutoProxy to instrument the bean first, but it didn't make any
difference. I have also used the ordered property of both post processors
without any effect also.

Am I missing something else?


<bean id="SecuritySAO" class="my.SecuritySAOImpl" />


<bean id="AutoProxy"
class="org.springframework.aop.framework.autoproxy.BeanNameAutoProxyCreator"
>
	<property name="proxyTargetClass"><value>true</value></property>
	<property name="order"><value>1</value></property>
	<property name="interceptorNames">
		<list>
			<idref local="transactionInterceptor"/>
		</list>
	</property>
	<property name="beanNames">
		<list>
			<idref local="jpp.SecuritySAO"/>
		</list>
	</property>
</bean>

<bean id="SAOAware" class="my.spring.AutowireByInterface"
depends-on="AutoProxy">
	<property name="order"><value>100</value></property>
	<property name="interface"><value>my.SAOAware</value></property>
	<property name="property"><value>securitySAO</value></property>
	<property name="value"><ref bean="SecuritySAO" /></property>
</bean>
