Is better Prototype scope for Neo4jRepository?

[ravi_arsuda]

I used one interface that i defined @Scope(ConfigurableBeanFactory.SCOPE_PROTOTYPE) extends Neo4jRepository. Is It prototype scope good for Neo4jRepository ?

@Scope(ConfigurableBeanFactory.SCOPE_PROTOTYPE)*/
public interface ActivityCustomFieldRepository extends Neo4jRepository<ActivityCustomFieldNew, Long>

i used that above.

I don't see any benefit in using the prototype scope here. Beans of type Neo4jRepository should always be stateless and so can be defined and used as (standard) singleton beans.
In a prototype scenario you will end up with creating new repository beans for each call.
