AopProxyUtils.ultimateTargetClass returns null if candidate parameter is not a TargetClassAware [SPR-7447]

[spring-projects-issues]

Damien Bourdette opened SPR-7447 and commented

The javadoc states for return value : the target class (or the plain class of the given object as fallback; never <code>null</code>)

If candidates is not a instance of TargetClassAware, result is null.

Fortunately, this got discovered and fixed two weeks ago. Recent 3.0.4 snapshots contain this fix already.
