I would like to use the declarative transaction management abililities of TransactionProxyFactoryBean in conjunction with JTATransactionManager and JOTM.

My problem is that I can't wire-up the target on TransactionProxyFactoryBean, because the object that is to be proxied is supplied by Hibernate (recreated from database), and so isn't defined in my applicationContext.xml configuration file. As I understand it, the tx proxy factory bean only proxies the object that it is wired to in the configuration file.

I tried manually getting the factory bean and setting the target programmatically, but there was a startup error saying that target was not set.

This is what I have in my applicationContext.xml file so far:

Code:
<bean id="jotm" class="org.springframework.transaction.jta.JotmFactoryBean"/>
<bean id="jtaTransactionManager" class="org.springframework.transaction.jta.JtaTransactionManager">
	<property name="userTransaction">
		<ref local="jotm"/>
	</property>
</bean>
<bean id="xaDataSource" class="org.enhydra.jdbc.standard.StandardXADataSource"
	singleton="false" destroy-method="shutdown">
	<property name="transactionManager">
		<ref local="jotm"/>
	</property>
</bean>
<bean id="xaPoolDataSource"
	class="org.enhydra.jdbc.pool.StandardXAPoolDataSource"
	destroy-method="shutdown" singleton="false">
	<property name="dataSource">
		<ref local="xaDataSource"/>
	</property>
</bean>
<bean id="jtaTransactionProxy"
	class="org.springframework.transaction.interceptor.TransactionProxyFactoryBean" lazy-init="true">
	<property name="transactionManager">
		<ref local="jtaTransactionManager"/>
	</property>
	<property name="transactionAttributes">
		<props>
			<!-- write actions&#58; rollback if any exception occurs -->
			<prop key="execute*">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED,-Exception</prop>
		</props>
	</property>
	<property name="target">
		<bean id="quartzJob" class="com.thatone.archie.engine.job.QuartzJobImpl" singleton="false"/>
	</property>
</bean>
Any help or pointers to resources that might be helpful would be really appreciated.

thanks...
