Spring AOP issue

[Jason Ferguson]

I wrote a "band-aid" fix for a live application as a Spring AOP class implementing MethodInterceptor (the app only has about 6-9 months to live, so a "correct" fix wasn't worth it).

However, I added the following lines to my applicationContext.xml file to apply the aspect but the MethodInterceptor never gets invoked.

 
    <bean id="equipmentSummaryReport"
          class="com.whatever.reports.equipment.EquipmentSummaryReportImpl"/>
    <bean id="equipmentSummaryReportAdvice" class="com.whatever.aop.EquipmentTypeSummaryReportAdvice">
        <property name="dataSource">
            <ref bean="dataSource"/>
        </property>
    </bean>
    <bean id="esrAutoProxyCreator" class="org.springframework.aop.framework.autoproxy.BeanNameAutoProxyCreator">
        <property name="proxyTargetClass" value="true"/>
        <property name="interceptorNames">
            <list>
                <idref bean="equipmentSummaryReportAdvice"/>
            </list>
        </property>
        <property name="beanNames" value="equipmentSummaryReport" />
</bean>
   

Can anyone assist?

It looks fine from here. How are you getting a reference to equipmentSummaryReport ?
