SpringBoot ClassCastException when running in AOT mode applying aspect to @RefreshScope bean

When running an AOT build of an application with a @RefreshScope bean that has an aspect applied to it, the application fails during runtime startup with the following stack trace.

I have created a reproducer at https://github.com/justin-tay/spring-boot-refresh-aspect-issue which demonstrates the issue.

In my actual application both the @RefreshScope RestController and the aspect are being contributed by two separate libraries so I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong.

Running mvn spring-boot:run shows that it starts up normally.

Running mvn clean package -Pnative and then java -Dspring.aot.enabled=true -jar target/demo-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar shows the exception.

Thanks for the report but @RefreshScope is a Spring Cloud feature. Please open a Spring Cloud Commons issue for that they can investigate.
