Field Detail

PRESERVE_TARGET_CLASS_ATTRIBUTE

public static final String PRESERVE_TARGET_CLASS_ATTRIBUTE
Bean definition attribute that may indicate whether a given bean is supposed to be proxied with its target class (in case of it getting proxied in the first place). The value is Boolean.TRUE or Boolean.FALSE.

Proxy factories can set this attribute if they built a target class proxy for a specific bean, and want to enforce that that bean can always be cast to its target class (even if AOP advices get applied through auto-proxying).

Determine whether the given bean should be proxied with its target class rather than its interfaces. Checks the "preserveTargetClass" attribute of the corresponding bean definition.

Parameters:
beanFactory - the containing ConfigurableListableBeanFactory
beanName - the name of the bean
Returns:
whether the given bean should be proxied with its target class
