aop:scoped-proxy and Map/List-FactoryBean

[jan]

hi all,

i am currently running in a problem when using an injected map which is "aop:scoped".

here is some code:

	<bean id="mylist" class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.ListFactoryBean" scope="request">
		<property name="singleton" value="false"/>
		<property name="sourceList">
			<list/>
		</property>
		<aop:scoped-proxy/>
	</bean>

initialization work fine but the following is the problem:

ApplicationContext ctx = ... // do lookup
List l = (List)ctx.getBean("mylist");
l.add("entry");

but l.size() still returns "0"

when i remove the "<aop:scoped-proxy/>" element from the bean it work as expected and l.size() returns "1"

the same behaviour is when i use MapFactoryBean.

i can see in my debugger that List.add() is invoked but it seams like the any of the aop-proxy creates a new instance instead of returning the existing one.

this happens in 2.0.2 and 2.0.3

PS:
why does <util:map> not support "scoped" ?

regards
jan

Not sure, but

<property name="singleton" value="false"/>

looks suspicious. Can you test it without it?
