Recommend use of self injection instead of AopContext.currentProxy()

Self-Injection is better than horrendous AopContext.currentProxy()

Hi @quaff,

Self-Injection is better than horrendous AopContext.currentProxy()

Yes, I totally agree that with! 👍

However, after further analysis, I realized that we cannot use @Autowired in the example you modified in this PR.

In addition, I noticed there was room for improvement in other areas.

In light of that, I am closing this PR as superseded by the following.

• Consolidate self injection documentation in the reference manual #33454
• Revise AOP proxying section of the reference manual #33455

Thanks anyway for the PR!

@quaff, we may not actually have a "self injection" example anywhere in the reference manual. So, if you'd like to submit a new PR with such an example, feel free to do so.

It should probably go in the new Self Injection sidebar here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/main/framework-docs/modules/ROOT/pages/core/beans/annotation-config/autowired.adoc#beans-autowired-annotation-self-injection
