import org.aopalliance.intercept.MethodInvocation;

import org.springframework.lang.Nullable;


Extension of the AOP Alliance MethodInvocation interface, allowing access to the proxy that the method invocation was made through. 
Useful to be able to substitute return values with the proxy,
if necessary, for example if the invocation target returned itself.
