org.springframework.aop.target
Class LazyInitTargetSource

java.lang.Object
  org.springframework.aop.target.AbstractBeanFactoryBasedTargetSource
      org.springframework.aop.target.LazyInitTargetSource

All Implemented Interfaces:

BeanFactoryAware, Serializable, TargetSource

public class LazyInitTargetSource

extends AbstractBeanFactoryBasedTargetSource

TargetSource that lazily accesses a singleton from a BeanFactory.

Useful when a proxy reference is needed on initialization but the actual target object should not be initialized until first use. The target bean must me marked as "lazy-init" too, else it would get instantiated by the BeanFactory on startup. For example:

 <bean id="serviceTarget" class="example.MyService" lazy-init="true">
   ...
 </bean>

 <bean id="service" class="org.springframework.aop.framework.ProxyFactoryBean">
   <property name="targetSource">
     <bean class="org.springframework.aop.target.LazyInitTargetSource">
       <property name="targetBeanName"><idref local="serviceTarget"/></property>
     </bean>
   </property>
 </bean>

The "serviceTarget" bean will not get initialized until a method on the "service" proxy gets invoked.

1.1.4
