Allow target access in Cache Key SpEL [SPR-7832]

[spring-projects-issues]

Chris Bonham opened SPR-7832 and commented

Occasionally a Spring Cache Key may need access to the target object in the SpEL. I've included a patch to add a #target variable to the LazyParamAwareEvaluationContext for this use case.

Fixed this in trunk. The target object (along with other invocation params) are available on the root object - they are not exposed as variables since they might clash with the actual method variables.
Feedback is welcome.
