Spring @Async not working on an anonymous class

Question

I am using @Async tag inside a method in Anonymous class. Does Spring AOP support this:

  private void scheduleProcessing(final SomePojo somepojo) {
      taskScheduler.schedule(new Runnable() {
          @Override
          @Async("myThreadPoolTaskExecutor")
          public void run() {
            // biz logic
          }
      }, 20, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
  }

Apparently methods denoted with spring annotations like Async, Transactional etc should be called from outside the class (AOP Proxy). Here run will be called somewhere internally when the Thread starts — David John, Jul 20 '17 at 05:08
