Cannot create AopProxy with no advisors and no target source

**wouter** · Feb 7th, 2005, 04:19 PM

hi,

*sorry for the long post, but I don't know better than to paste all I got*

I'm running an AndroMDA generated application and I'm getting this exception for some of the entities (not all of them), I cannot pinpoint what's causing it, and I don't know why some of them fail with this exception and the others don't.

I am using JBoss 3.2.5 with Spring 1.1.2 on Windows XP, I'm using Hibernate 2.1.6 as ORM

anyone has an idea about this ?

thanks in advance

I am getting the same error, although perhaps for a different reason, as detailed in thread:

http://forum.springframework.org/showthread.php?t=12798

The problem I am having is when two proxied objects depend on each other. Hence, only a problem with some beans.

I'm helping Wouter out trying to debug this issue. And you're right it does occur when two proxied beans reference each other, if you look at the applicationContext.xml Wouter has pasted, you'll see

Code:

    <bean id="articleDaoTarget" class="be.vw.wc.article.ArticleDaoImpl">
        <property name="sessionFactory"><ref local="sessionFactory"/></property>
        <property name="person"><ref bean="personDao"/></property>
        <property name="articleStock"><ref bean="articleStockDao"/></property>
    </bean>

and

Code:

    <bean id="personDaoTarget" class="be.vw.wc.person.PersonDaoImpl">
        <property name="sessionFactory"><ref local="sessionFactory"/></property>
        <property name="medicalCertificate"><ref bean="medicalCertificateDao"/></property>
        <property name="badge"><ref bean="badgeDao"/></property>
        <property name="articleType"><ref bean="articleTypeDao"/></property>
        <property name="articleGroup"><ref bean="articleGroupDao"/></property>
        <property name="articleStock"><ref bean="articleStockDao"/></property>
        <property name="article"><ref bean="articleDao"/></property>
    </bean>

which do reference each other.

If I remove "</property>
<property name="article"><ref bean="articleDao"/></property>" from personDaoTarget, when spring initializes, there are no problems, if I remove "<property name="person"><ref bean="personDao"/></property>" from articleDaoTarget then again when spring initializes there are no problems.

So it looks like if I remove either property reference from one or the other (it doesn't matter which) then spring initializes fine, so sounds like the same thing you're running into. I'm surprised more people haven't run into this?

I've also seen the error (not on Wouter's project) when I had a long class name when running on windows (for one of my services), I shortened the service name and the problem went away.

**cwbrandon** · Feb 7th, 2005, 10:40 PM

When I set default-autowire="byType" or "autodetect" (when I have 2 beans that reference each other), I get an infinite loop while spring initializes, sounds like a bug to me.

I filed this in JIRA a few days ago. It would be great if you add this information to that JIRA and voted for it's resolution (solidarity and all) :wink:

The JIRA is SPR-689

Cheers

**cwbrandon** · Feb 7th, 2005, 11:31 PM

Will do..thanks for the info.

**wouter** · Feb 8th, 2005, 03:32 AM

also voted for SPR-689
hope they will be able to get it in the next release *fingers_crossed*

thanks for all the help folks!

I think (?) there have been previous posts similar to this.

The workaround seemed to be to use a BeanPostProcessor to complete the bean references.

e.g. if A references B, and B references A, then retain the Spring config where B is injected into A, and then create a BeanPostProcessor that looks for A and manually sets it into B.

If you do a search for BeanPostProcessor, you'll probably be able to find the posts easily.

**steven.warren** · Feb 8th, 2005, 05:03 PM

Thanks for the reference, I see that now. I didn't make the connection (duh) before that when I added advice to my "normal" bean it suddenly became a "factory" bean and so this problem kicks in.

Regardless, I think it's a good idea to have the JIRA in place, it really ought to be addressed if at all possible. Everyone is going to get tripped up on this as it gets introduced randomly during the development process.

As my bean definitions are generated automatically, I have to go back and see how I can reconize this situation. Chances are I won't be able to figure it out for all cases and will need to change my DAO classes to incorporate the advice directly rather then using Spring AOP for this. ughhh....

Cheers
Steve

Well doing a search for "BeanPostProcessor" I found this post: http://forum.springframework.org/showthread.php?t=10982 which offered a couple suggestions for a work-a-round. I implemented the lookup-method option, so replacing the regular property references for the circular dependencies with

<lookup-method name="getArticleDao" bean="articleDao"/>

and

<lookup-method name="getPersonDao" bean="personDao"/>

fixed the problem. Thanks for the help! However I agree this really should be fixed as it's not obvious why it doesn't work.
