There are many way to get application context in Spring application. Those are given bellow:

1. Via ApplicationContextAware:

   import org.springframework.beans.BeansException;
   import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
   import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextAware;
   
   public class AppContextProvider implements ApplicationContextAware {
   
   private ApplicationContext applicationContext;
   
   @Override
   public void setApplicationContext(ApplicationContext applicationContext) throws BeansException {
       this.applicationContext = applicationContext;
   }
   }
   

Here setApplicationContext(ApplicationContext applicationContext) method you will get the applicationContext

2. Via Autowired:

   @Autowired
   private ApplicationContext applicationContext;
   

Here @Autowired keyword will provide the applicationContext.
