AOP on Classes implementing generic interfaces fails

[solman]

I have had a problem using AOP on classes that implement generic interfaces. Before I understood that this was the problem, I posted about this issue here:

http://forum.springframework.org/showthread.php?t=10384

I have a many classes of the form:

ThingManager extends java.lang.Object implements Manager<Thing>

When I attempt to have TransactionProxyFactoryBean generate CGLIB proxies for me, it throws a StackOverflowError due to an apparently infinite recursion in the CGLIB libraries (please see the referenced post for a copy of the message).

Removing the generified interface declaration makes everything work properly.

Is using CGLIB on generics verboten? Is this a bug in CGLIB? Is this a bug in the way Spring uses CGLIB? Is there a work around for this? Or am I simply mistaken?

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Doh! Just spotted this post after replying to the previous one.

I'm not sure as yet if CGLIB has support for generics. I will speak to the guys there and see what the situation is.
