java listen to ContextRefreshedEvent

Question

I have a classX in my spring application in which I want to be able to find out if all spring beans have been initialized. To do this, I am trying to listen ContextRefreshedEven

Answer 1

Spring >= 4.2

You can use annotation-driven event listener as below :

@Component
public class classX  {

    @EventListener
    public void handleContextRefresh(ContextRefreshedEvent event) {

    }
}

the ApplicationListener you want to register is defined in the signature of the method.
