package org.springframework.aop.framework;

Interface to be implemented by factories that are able to create AOP proxies based on AdvisedSupport configuration objects.

Proxies should observe the following contract:

  • They should implement all interfaces that the configuration indicates should be proxied.
  • They should implement the Advised interface.
  • They should implement the equals method to compare proxied interfaces, advice, and target.
  • They should be serializable if all advisors and target are serializable.
  • They should be thread-safe if advisors and target are thread-safe.

Proxies may or may not allow advice changes to be made. If they do not permit advice changes (for example, because the configuration was frozen) a proxy should throw an AopConfigException on an attempted advice change.
