Spring AOP get target from proxy

[Bohtvaroh]

Hello, dear community.

I am trying to get target object from its proxy. I do the following:

  <bean id="myObjectTargetSource" factory-bean="myProxiedObject"
    factory-method="getTargetSource" />
  <bean id="myObjectTarget" factory-bean="myObjectTargetSource"
    factory-method="getTarget" />

  <!-- Register Service as MBean -->
  <bean class="org.springframework.jmx.export.MBeanExporter">
    <property name="beans">
      <map>
        <entry key="Systems:name=..."
          value-ref="myObjectTarget" />
      </map>
    </property>
  </bean>

(myProxiedObject is defined using autowiring) but in jconsole I still see the proxy. Why?

It looks like myProxiedObject.getTargetSource().getTarget() returns myProxiedObject itself. How can this be?

After some debugging I realized that this is MBeanExporter related problem and myProxiedObject.getTargetSource().getTarget() returns target object as expected.
