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

If you want run a job after Spring's context start, then you can use the ApplicationListener and the event ContextRefreshedEvent.

public class YourJobClass implements ApplicationListener{

    public void onApplicationEvent(ContextRefreshedEvent contextRefreshedEvent ) {
             // do what you want - you can use all spring beans (this is the difference between init-method and @PostConstructor where you can't)
             // this class can be annotated as spring service, and you can use @Autowired in it

    }
}
