Spring AOP with Tomcat

The fact that you implement an interface doesn't automatically mean that you don't use CGLib. If you have proxyTargetClass set to true (or similair properties) you use cglib. Apparently that is the case somewhere.

That is what it is telling me I need.

So you need it or disable class proxying...

Ok. I used the empty constructor and everything is working fine. Thanks everyone for answering my questions. I guess I was just looking for a work around trying to avoid empty constructors everywhere.

Normally, it is preferable to use dynamic proxies over CGLIB proxies.

Really, this is Spring default behavior as far as proxied class implements at least one interface and Spring is not instructed specifically to use CGLIB-proxies (by proxy-target-class="true").. Really, it is described in Spring reference quite well (Chapter 6.6 in Spring 2.5.1 Reference).

As soon as dynamic proxying is used you have no need in the default constructor.
