+			When configuring certain endpoints using annotations (<code>@Filter</code>, <code>@ServiceActivator</code>,
+			<code>@Splitter</code>, and <code>@Transformer</code>), you can supply a bean name for the advice
+			chain in the <code>adviceChain</code> attribute. In addition, the <code>@Filter</code> annotation
+			also has the <code>discardWithinAdvice</code> attribute, which can be used to configure the discard
+			behavior as discussed in <xref linkend="advising-filters"/>. An example with the discard being
+			performed after the advice is shown below.

+			Advice classes are "around" advices and are applied in a nested fashion. The first advice is the
+			outermost, the last advice the innermost (closest to the handler being advised). It is important
+			to put the advice classes in the correct order to achieve the functionality you desire.
+		</para>
+		<para>
+			For example, let's say you want to add a retry advice and a transaction advice.
+			You may want to place the retry advice advice first, followed by the transaction advice.
+			Then, each retry will be performed in a new transaction. On the other hand, if you want all the attempts,
+			and any recovery operations (in the retry <classname>RecoveryCallback</classname>), to be scoped within
+			the transaction, you would put the transaction advice first.
