package org.springframework.aop.target;

import org.springframework.beans.BeansException;
import org.springframework.lang.Nullable;

TargetSource that lazily accesses a singleton bean from a BeanFactory. 
Useful when a proxy reference is needed on initialization but the actual target object should not be initialized until first use. When the target bean is defined in an ApplicationContext (or a BeanFactory that is eagerly pre-instantiating singleton beans) it must be marked as "lazy-init" too, else it will be instantiated by said ApplicationContext (or 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.
Subclasses can extend this class and override the postProcessTargetObject(Object) to perform some additional processing with the target object when it is first loaded.
