AbstractSingletonProxyFactoryBean is deprecated [SPR-8680]

[spring-projects-issues]

Marten Deinum opened SPR-8680 and commented

According to the javadocs of the AbstractSingletonProxyFactoryBean it has been deprecated

---

• @deprecated as of Spring 3.1 following the deprecation of its only implementation
• ({@link org.springframework.transaction.interceptor.TransactionProxyFactoryBean
• TransactionProxyFactoryBean}) and generally in favor of providing such functionality
• via Spring XML namespaces, e.g. {@code tx:} or {@code @Enable}* annotations, e.g.

{@code @EnableTransactionManagement}.

---

However there is another implementation CacheProxyFactoryBean which uses this bean. So not sure if either the javadoc is valid or the deprecation at all...

---

Affects: 3.1 M2

Hi Marten,

Actually this is as designed and CachProxyFactoryBean is expected to be eliminated entirely. Thanks for the reminder, though; I've just created #13327 to track the original deprecations and to remind Costin to remove CacheProxyFactoryBean if he sees fit.

Regards,

Chris
