Hi Dave, I'm not sure about your question , but Spring user guide [1] shows how you can access beans defined in the Spring application context. you don't need to modify you Spring application context file , but need to define "ServiceObjectSupplier" parameter in the service.xml file.
When you come to Spring AOP proxy beans you need one more extra step to define "ServiceClass" parameter in the service.xml file . Recently i have done a such example ,please refer following blog entry [2] for more details .
