Reference current bean with SpEL

Is there a way to reference the current instance of the object which contains the SPeL expression?

I am basically looking for something like

@Value("#{otherBean.getClassName(this.GetClass())}")

Where getClassName(Class<T> class) returns the name of the class, for example.

No; that is not possible; there is no way to reference the current bean (or class), you can only access beans by name.
