Hello there,

I have a bean that is already proxing all my service objects so that I can manage transaction´s configuration transparently. The code below shows its configuration.
Code:
<!-- Transaction template for Managers, from:
		http://blog.exis.com/colin/archives/...ons-spring-11/ -->
	<bean id="txProxyTemplate" abstract="true"
		class="org.springframework.transaction.interceptor.TransactionProxyFactoryBean">
		<property name="transactionManager" ref="transactionManager" />
		<property name="transactionAttributes">
			<props>
				<prop key="save*">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED</prop>
				<prop key="remove*">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED</prop>
 				<prop key="load*">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED,readOnly</prop>
				<prop key="delete*">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED</prop> 
			</props>
		</property>
	</bean>

I also have a service class, called BaseManager which has some generic methods, that many use cases use. The code below is the definition of the BaseManager class.

Code:
	<!-- Generic manager that can be used to do basic CRUD operations on any objects  -->
	<bean id="baseManager" abstract="true" parent="txProxyTemplate">
		<property name="target">
			<bean class="br.gov.mps.souweb.service.impl.BaseManagerImpl">
				<property name="baseDAO" ref="baseDAO" />
			</bean>
		</property>
	</bean>
The problem is sometimes it is necessary to create some specificUseCaseManagers and I would like to make them inherit from BaseManager bean AND also be proxied by my transaction bean.

How can I accomplish this?

I tried the following below, but the properties defined on the superclass, i.e., on the BaseManager class are not setted by Spring.

Code:
<bean id="specificUseCaseManager" parent="baseManager">
		<property name="target">
			<bean class="br.gov.mps.souweb.service.impl.specificUseCaseManagerImpl">
                        <bean>
				<property name="buscaDAO" ref="buscaDAO" />
			</bean>
		</property>
		<property name="transactionAttributes">
			<props>
				<prop key="*">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED</prop>
			</props>
		</property>
	</bean>
