Creating AOP proxies programmatically with the ProxyFactory Manipulating advised objects
12.7 Creating AOP proxies programmatically with the ProxyFactory
It’s easy to create AOP proxies programmatically using Spring. This enables you to use Spring AOP without dependency on Spring IoC. The following listing shows creation of a proxy for a target object, with one interceptor and one advisor. The interfaces implemented by the target object will automatically be proxied: ProxyFactory factory = new ProxyFactorymyBusinessInterfaceImpl; factory.addAdvicemyMethodInterceptor; factory.addAdvisormyAdvisor; MyBusinessInterface tb = MyBusinessInterface factory.getProxy; The first step is to construct an object of type org.springframework.aop.framework.ProxyFactory . You can create this with a target object, as in the above example, or specify the interfaces to be proxied in an alternate constructor. You can add advices with interceptors as a specialized kind of advice andor advisors, and manipulate them for the life of the ProxyFactory. If you add an IntroductionInterceptionAroundAdvisor, you can cause the proxy to implement additional interfaces. There are also convenience methods on ProxyFactory inherited from AdvisedSupport which allow you to add other advice types such as before and throws advice. AdvisedSupport is the superclass of both ProxyFactory and ProxyFactoryBean. Tip Integrating AOP proxy creation with the IoC framework is best practice in most applications. We recommend that you externalize configuration from Java code with AOP, as in general. 4.3.9.RELEASE Spring Framework 28212.8 Manipulating advised objects
However you create AOP proxies, you can manipulate them using the org.springframework.aop.framework.Advised interface. Any AOP proxy can be cast to this interface, whichever other interfaces it implements. This interface includes the following methods: Advisor[] getAdvisors; void addAdviceAdvice advice throws AopConfigException; void addAdvice int pos, Advice advice throws AopConfigException; void addAdvisorAdvisor advisor throws AopConfigException; void addAdvisor int pos, Advisor advisor throws AopConfigException; int indexOfAdvisor advisor; boolean removeAdvisorAdvisor advisor throws AopConfigException; void removeAdvisor int index throws AopConfigException; boolean replaceAdvisorAdvisor a, Advisor b throws AopConfigException; boolean isFrozen; The getAdvisors method will return an Advisor for every advisor, interceptor or other advice type that has been added to the factory. If you added an Advisor, the returned advisor at this index will be the object that you added. If you added an interceptor or other advice type, Spring will have wrapped this in an advisor with a pointcut that always returns true. Thus if you added a MethodInterceptor , the advisor returned for this index will be an DefaultPointcutAdvisor returning your MethodInterceptor and a pointcut that matches all classes and methods. The addAdvisor methods can be used to add any Advisor. Usually the advisor holding pointcut and advice will be the generic DefaultPointcutAdvisor , which can be used with any advice or pointcut but not for introductions. By default, it’s possible to add or remove advisors or interceptors even once a proxy has been created. The only restriction is that it’s impossible to add or remove an introduction advisor, as existing proxies from the factory will not show the interface change. You can obtain a new proxy from the factory to avoid this problem. A simple example of casting an AOP proxy to the Advised interface and examining and manipulating its advice: Advised advised = Advised myObject; Advisor[] advisors = advised.getAdvisors; int oldAdvisorCount = advisors.length; System.out.printlnoldAdvisorCount + advisors ; Add an advice like an interceptor without a pointcut Will match all proxied methods Can use for interceptors, before, after returning or throws advice advised.addAdvice new DebugInterceptor; Add selective advice using a pointcut advised.addAdvisor new DefaultPointcutAdvisormySpecialPointcut, myAdvice; assertEquals Added two advisors , oldAdvisorCount + 2, advised.getAdvisors.length; 4.3.9.RELEASE Spring Framework 283 Note It’s questionable whether it’s advisable no pun intended to modify advice on a business object in production, although there are no doubt legitimate usage cases. However, it can be very useful in development: for example, in tests. I have sometimes found it very useful to be able to add test code in the form of an interceptor or other advice, getting inside a method invocation I want to test. For example, the advice can get inside a transaction created for that method: for example, to run SQL to check that a database was correctly updated, before marking the transaction for roll back. Depending on how you created the proxy, you can usually set a frozen flag, in which case the Advised isFrozen method will return true, and any attempts to modify advice through addition or removal will result in an AopConfigException . The ability to freeze the state of an advised object is useful in some cases, for example, to prevent calling code removing a security interceptor. It may also be used in Spring 1.1 to allow aggressive optimization if runtime advice modification is known not to be required.12.9 Using the auto-proxy facility
