How to execute jobs just after spring loads application context?

Question

I want to run some jobs just after loading the Spring context but I do not know how to do this.
Do you have any idea how to do that?

Answer 1

Another possibility would be to register a listener to application context events (). Basically it's the same as skaffman's solution, just implement:

org.springframework.context.ApplicationListener

instead of Lifecycle. It has only one method instead of three. :-)
