Is there anyway to get beans loaded via <context:component-scan/> in a xml file to be proxy'ed by an @Coniguration annotated class which has @EnableCaching and declares the SimpleCacheManager? This would be the easiest route for the large applicaiton I'm working with, my ultimate preference would be to convert it all over to a Configuration class, but that is a lot more work and there are next to no unit tests for this application -.- , something would totally break. The other option is to declare the Cache's in the xml which works fine but I feel like is a step backwards.
NOTE: The <context:annotation-config/> is declared in a separate xml file 'integration.xml' I put it back in the applicationContext.xml but it didn't affect anything.
The declaration of the caches and the enabling of the caching via @EnableCaching was moved to the below java class some time ago and I don't think anyone noticed that it stopped working. So I would like to get it working again in the best way.
Application Context (edited for brevity)

EDIT: Fixed copy paste reformat typos
<cache:annotation-driven />and @EnableCaching are equal you can have only one (maybe it can be source of your trouble) Can you provide example of code where you are actually using caching? Which bean should use cache feature.
