Spring shutdown event that fires immediately before ApplicationContext is destroyed?

java spring destroy applicationcontext
Neron picture Neron · Jun 5, 2012 · Viewed 8.2k times · Source

I am looking for an interceptor or a trigger to know that, all the context beans are destroyed and the applicationcontext instance is about to destroy itself. So I can do one process at the end of the application lifetime.

There is this event type ContextClosedEvent, which is close to the thing that I wanna do but, it throws the event after destruction of beans. I thing it comes with the close() method of the applicationcontext. So it doesn't fit to my need

Any ideas?

Regards

Ali

You can use registerShutDownHook() method of the abstract application context class. For more details have a look at this.

UPDATE

Then you should try @PreDestroy annotation on top of the method where you want to run something in the end when the spring context is about to destroy.

Hope this helps you. Cheers.
