      	Spring DM publishes a proxy that on each call, delegates back to the target application context for retrieving the instance. While with other beans
      	this works, in case of prototypes, this results in one-instance-per-invocation which is incorrect. Additional functionality needs to be added
      	to fully support prototypes even though, as pointed out, this involves a knowledge between Client/Server regarding the publication contract.</p><p>See <a xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" href="http://jira.springframework.org/browse/OSGI-237" target="_top">OSGI-237</a></p></div></div><div xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="preface.html">Prev</a>&nbsp;</td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="issues.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right">&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Preface&nbsp;</td><td width="20%" align="center"><span style="color:white;font-size:90%;"><a href="http://www.SpringSource.com/" title="SpringSource - Spring from the Source">Sponsored by SpringSource
