[jira] Commented: (WW-2547) Using actions proxied with Spring AOP throws exception

["Bob Tiernay (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2547?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=44216#action_44216 ] 

Bob Tiernay commented on WW-2547:
---------------------------------

After looking at the supplied applicationContext.xml, it would seem as though the beanNames  property is casting too wide of a net within the following bean definition:

- <bean id="proxyCreator" class="org.springframework.aop.framework.autoproxy.BeanNameAutoProxyCreator">
- <property name="beanNames">
  <value>*</value> 
  </property>
- <property name="interceptorNames">
- <list>
  <value>traceInterceptor</value> 
  </list>
  </property>
  </bean>

Not only does this apply a proxy to user level spring managed beans, but also to those of struts system level beans (see struts-default.xml) since the spring plugin overrides the StrutsObjectFactory. In this particular case, it looks as though some MethodFilterInterceptor derived interceptor  is being proxied inappropriately (infered from the excludeMethods property in the stack trace).

I would recommend trying to reduce the scope of the beanNames property to actions in a particular package, etc.
