Interface to be implemented by beans that need to react once all their properties have been set by a BeanFactory
: e.g. to perform custom initialization, or merely to check that all mandatory properties have been set. An alternative to implementing InitializingBean
is specifying a custom init method, for example in an XML bean definition. For a list of all bean lifecycle methods, see the BeanFactory javadocs
.
