Fixing BeanNotOfRequiredTypeException on Spring proxy cast on a non-singleton bean?

Question

I\'m having an issue with pulling a Spring bean from an application context.

When I try;

InnerThread instance = (InnerThread) SpringContextFactory.g         


        

Answer 1

I had this issue even though I referenced CGLIB and used the proxy-target-class="true" setting. I determined ehcache:annotation tag was to blame... Removing the following configuration solved this for me. Fortunately, I was able to use hibernate level 2 caching instead of having to use ehcache declarative caching.
