protected boolean advisorsPreFiltered() 
{
		return true;
}

This auto-proxy creator always returns pre-filtered Advisors.

 protected  void extendAdvisors(List candidateAdvisors) 
{

}

Extension hook that subclasses can override to register additional Advisors, given the sorted Advisors obtained to date.

The default implementation is empty.

Typically used to add Advisors that expose contextual information required by some of the later advisors.

 protected List findAdvisorsThatCanApply(List candidateAdvisors,
    Class beanClass,
    String beanName) 
{
		ProxyCreationContext.setCurrentProxiedBeanName(beanName);
		try {
			return AopUtils.findAdvisorsThatCanApply(candidateAdvisors, beanClass);
		}
		finally {
			ProxyCreationContext.setCurrentProxiedBeanName(null);
		}
}

Search the given candidate Advisors to find all Advisors that can apply to the specified bean.

 protected List findCandidateAdvisors() 
{
		return this.advisorRetrievalHelper.findAdvisorBeans();
}

Find all candidate Advisors to use in auto-proxying.

 protected List findEligibleAdvisors(Class beanClass,
    String beanName) 
{
		List candidateAdvisors = findCandidateAdvisors();
		List eligibleAdvisors = findAdvisorsThatCanApply(candidateAdvisors, beanClass, beanName);
		if (!eligibleAdvisors.isEmpty()) {
			eligibleAdvisors = sortAdvisors(eligibleAdvisors);
		}
		extendAdvisors(eligibleAdvisors);
		return eligibleAdvisors;
}

Find all eligible Advisors for auto-proxying this class.

 protected Object[] getAdvicesAndAdvisorsForBean(Class beanClass,
    String beanName,
    TargetSource targetSource) 
{
		List advisors = findEligibleAdvisors(beanClass, beanName);
		if (advisors.isEmpty()) {
			return DO_NOT_PROXY;
		}
		return advisors.toArray();
}

 protected  void initBeanFactory(ConfigurableListableBeanFactory beanFactory) 
{
		this.advisorRetrievalHelper = new BeanFactoryAdvisorRetrievalHelperAdapter(beanFactory);
}

 protected boolean isEligibleAdvisorBean(String beanName) 
{
		return true;
}

Return whether the Advisor bean with the given name is eligible for proxying in the first place.

 public  void setBeanFactory(BeanFactory beanFactory) 
{
		super.setBeanFactory(beanFactory);
		if (!(beanFactory instanceof ConfigurableListableBeanFactory)) {
			throw new IllegalStateException("Cannot use AdvisorAutoProxyCreator without a ConfigurableListableBeanFactory");
		}
		initBeanFactory((ConfigurableListableBeanFactory) beanFactory);
}

 protected List sortAdvisors(List advisors) 
{
		Collections.sort(advisors, new OrderComparator());
		return advisors;
}

Sort advisors based on ordering. Subclasses may choose to override this method to customize the sorting strategy.
