Yea! Was just (finally) poking through the changes in the upcoming Spring 2.0 release and ran across their bean scopes. I've wanted this for a long time. Glad to see it arriving!

You can also do some cool stuf with custom scopes. See my blog entry at http://jroller.com/page/eu?entry=implementing_efficinet_id_generator
Re: Custom Scope
Even cooler!
Agreed
The Spring 2.0 scopes are going to be pretty handy. We've got an update to our integration with that, and Rod had a lot of good ideas for making stuff simpler. Also see http://plainvanilla.typepad.com/spring/2006/05/tangosol_cohere.html Peace, Cameron.
