ProxyMethodInterceptor doesn't handle finalize appropriately
------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GERONIMO-2204
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2204
             Project: Geronimo
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: kernel
    Affects Versions: 1.1
            Reporter: David Jencks
         Assigned To: Dain Sundstrom
            Priority: Minor


A user noticed that while debugging in eclipse (or idea with 
break-on-exceptions turned on) this method from ProxyMethodInterceptor throws 
UnsupportedOperationException when finalize is called on a proxy object:

    public final Object intercept(final Object object, final Method method, 
final Object[] args, final MethodProxy proxy) throws Throwable {
        ProxyInvoker gbeanInvoker;

        int interfaceIndex = proxy.getSuperIndex();
        synchronized (this) {
            if (gbeanInvokers == null) {
                throw new DeadProxyException("Proxy is no longer valid");
            }
            gbeanInvoker = gbeanInvokers[interfaceIndex];
        }

        if (gbeanInvoker == null) {
            throw new UnsupportedOperationException("No implementation method: 
objectName=" + abstractName + ", method=" + method);
        }

        return gbeanInvoker.invoke(abstractName, args);
    }


This appears to be harmless since the proxy doesn't implement finalize, but 
annoying.  We could fix this by explicitly ignoring the finalize method in the 
code above, possibly by installing a suitable FinalizeInvoker, or by using a 
CallbackFilter with  a Noop or SerizializableNoop callback (the strategy used 
by spring aop).

Is this worth fixing? Which way would be best?
