How can I use Spring Batch Admin with Spring 3.2 and @Schedule annotation?

Question

I integrated Spring Batch Admin into my app, which uses Spring 3.2.

Now I try to annotate a method with @Scheduled and activate this with <task:annotation-driven/>. When I launch the webapp I get this exception:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: @Scheduled method 'removeInactiveExecutions'
found on bean target class 'SimpleJobService', but not found in any interface(s) for bean
JDK proxy. Either pull the method up to an interface or switch to subclass (CGLIB) proxies 
by setting proxy-target-class/proxyTargetClass attribute to 'true'

The SimpleJobService of Spring Batch Admin uses this annotation on a method.

In Spring 3.2. it seems, that there is no need to put cglib into the classpath and spring-asm is obsolete, too. I excluded the spring-asm dependency from spring-batch-integration.

Where can I set proxy-target-class=true (I already tried it on <tx:annotation-config> and <aop:config>?

How can I use @Scheduled in my application?

Yes, its JobService. However, the annotated method is not member of the interface. — timomeinen
I found a raleted ticket in Springs Jira: jira.springsource.org/browse/BATCHADM-126 But the advised solution doesn't work with Spring 3.2. Fortunately, I can answer my question, where to set the proxy-target-class: It should be on the task-namespace element, which is not supported by Spring at the moment. — timomeinen
@Hendrik I worked around the problem with the task context of Spring. I created a XML file and use the <task:scheduled-tasks> element to create a scheduler on a bean e.g. <task:scheduled ref="jobRunner" method="launchTheJob" cron="0 0 12 * * MON-FRI"/>. — timomeinen

Add execution-context.xml in META-INF\spring\batch\override, set proxy of SimpleJobServiceFactoryBean to target class
