# Package org.springframework.aop.framework

Package containing Spring's basic AOP infrastructure, compliant with the AOP Alliance interfaces.

See: Description

- Interface Summary
  Interface | Description
  --- | ---
  Advised | Interface to be implemented by classes that hold the configuration of a factory of AOP proxies.
  AdvisedSupportListener | Listener to be registered on `ProxyCreatorSupport` objects Allows for receiving callbacks on activation and change of advice.
  AdvisorChainFactory | Factory interface for advisor chains.
  AopInfrastructureBean | Marker interface that indicates a bean that is part of Spring's AOP infrastructure.
  AopProxy | Delegate interface for a configured AOP proxy, allowing for the creation of actual proxy objects.
  AopProxyFactory | Interface to be implemented by factories that are able to create AOP proxies based on `AdvisedSupport` configuration objects.

- Class Summary
  Class | Description
  --- | ---
  AbstractAdvisingBeanPostProcessor | Base class for `BeanPostProcessor` implementations that apply a Spring AOP `Advisor` to specific beans.
  AbstractSingletonProxyFactoryBean | Convenient superclass for `FactoryBean` types that produce singleton-scoped proxy objects.
  AdvisedSupport | Base class for AOP proxy configuration managers.
  AopContext | Class containing static methods used to obtain information about the current AOP invocation.
  AopProxyUtils | Utility methods for AOP proxy factories.
  DefaultAdvisorChainFactory | A simple but definitive way of working out an advice chain for a Method, given an `Advised` object.
  DefaultAopProxyFactory | Default `AopProxyFactory` implementation, creating either a CGLIB proxy or a JDK dynamic proxy.
  ProxyConfig | Convenience superclass for configuration used in creating proxies, to ensure that all proxy creators have consistent properties.
  ProxyCreatorSupport | Base class for proxy factories.
  ProxyFactory | Factory for AOP proxies for programmatic use, rather than via a bean factory.
  ProxyFactoryBean | `FactoryBean` implementation that builds an AOP proxy based on beans in Spring `BeanFactory`.
  ReflectiveMethodInvocation | Spring's implementation of the AOP Alliance `MethodInvocation` interface, implementing the extended `ProxyMethodInvocation` interface.

- Exception Summary
  Exception | Description
  --- | ---
  AopConfigException | Exception that gets thrown on illegal AOP configuration arguments.

## Package org.springframework.aop.framework Description

Package containing Spring's basic AOP infrastructure, compliant with the AOP Alliance interfaces.

Spring AOP supports proxying interfaces or classes, introductions, and offers static and dynamic pointcuts.

Any Spring AOP proxy can be cast to the ProxyConfig AOP configuration interface in this package to add or remove interceptors.

The ProxyFactoryBean is a convenient way to create AOP proxies in a BeanFactory or ApplicationContext. However, proxies can be created programmatically using the ProxyFactory class.
