RegexpMethodPointcutAdvisor configuration failing in 2.0-rc3 ?

[heymjo]

Below configuration was fine in 2.0-rc2, but gives an error in 2.0-rc3.

Configuration:

  <bean id="advisor" class="org.springframework.aop.support.RegexpMethodPointcutAdvisor">
    <property name="advice">
      <ref bean="interceptor" />
    </property>
    <property name="patterns">    
      <list>
        <value>.*save.*</value>
        <value>.*do.*</value>
        <value>.*delete.*</value>
      </list>
    </property>
  </bean>

The error:

2006-08-17 09:12:47,129 ERROR [org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader] - Context initialization failed
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'advisor' defined in class path resource [service.xml]: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: 'patterns' cannot be null or empty.
