How to intercept static methods in Spring?

Subject line basically says it all. I have a static method I want to intercept so that around advice can be applied to it. I can get this to work with any non-static methods but I'm unsure how to allow static methods to be intercepted.

You can't do that with Spring AOP, because it is proxy based. You have to use AspectJ. Take a look at this simple example: http://blog.jayway.com/2007/02/16/static-mock-using-aspectj/
