Spring-managed Clojure beans

Question

I'm just wondering if it's possible to create Spring managed beans backed by Clojure code (Clojure namespace I guess, would implement regular Java interface)? If so, the example would be appreciated.

Thanks, Dmitriy.

I haven't tried that yet, but section 3.3 of Programming Clojure explains how to create class files with the :gen-class form. Use it with :implements and :extends, build a JAR from your classes and import them into your Spring project. That should - theoretically - do the trick.

I'd be very interested in any example code, too, by the way.
