Description
Hello!
I have a Spring Boot application, that supports 3rd party plugins. Because of that I need to use a custom class loader. But if there is a @Configuration that has @Lazy annotation (when Spring has to create a proxy), the app will not start. See the possible way to fix at the bottom.
Environment
Spring Boot: 3.3.3
Spring Framework: 6.1.12
Java: JDK 17
Steps to Reproduce
Start the app
Error Message
Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: class com.example.demo.SomeConfig$$SpringCGLIB$$0 cannot be cast to class org.springframework.cglib.proxy.Factory (com.example.demo.SomeConfig$$SpringCGLIB$$0 and org.springframework.cglib.proxy.Factory are in unnamed module of loader org.springframework.boot.loader.launch.LaunchedClassLoader @433c675d)

}Possible way to fix
This happens because Enhancer, that creates Configuration does not respect provided custom class loader.
In ConfigurationClassEnhancer in method newEnhancer it does not call enhancer.setClassLoader(classLoader)
In the same time CglibAopProxy respects provided custom class loader, it sets classloader in buildProxy method
if (classLoader != null) {
enhancer.setClassLoader(classLoader);
...There is also cache in AbstractClassGenerator, where key is ClassLoader:
private static volatile Map<ClassLoader, ClassLoaderData> CACHE = new WeakHashMap<>();
When Spring loads configuration class the first time, it does not use custom classloader and key is the default classloader (method create in AbstractClassGenerator).
When Spring creates cglib proxy for the configuration class, it calles create again, but this time custom class loader set to classLoader field, so the key in the CACHE is different. And this causes the issue.
This probably could be fixed if enhanchers for the same class will always use the same class loader.
For example you can set classloader in ConfigurationClassEnhancer -> newEnhancer method. I tried to do it in debug and it seems to work.
