Class AsyncAnnotationBeanPostProcessor

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.springframework.aop.framework.ProxyConfig
      extended by org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.AsyncAnnotationBeanPostProcessor
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, BeanClassLoaderAware, BeanPostProcessor, InitializingBean, Ordered

public class AsyncAnnotationBeanPostProcessor
extends ProxyConfig
implements BeanPostProcessor, BeanClassLoaderAware, InitializingBean, Ordered

Bean post-processor that automatically applies asynchronous invocation behavior to any bean that carries the Async annotation at class or method-level by adding a corresponding AsyncAnnotationAdvisor to the exposed proxy (either an existing AOP proxy or a newly generated proxy that implements all of the target's interfaces).

The TaskExecutor responsible for the asynchronous execution may be provided as well as the annotation type that indicates a method should be invoked asynchronously. If no annotation type is specified, this post- processor will detect both Spring's @Async annotation as well as the EJB 3.1 javax.ejb.Asynchronous annotation.

Since:
3.0

Method Detail

setAsyncAnnotationType

public void setAsyncAnnotationType(Class<? extends Annotation> asyncAnnotationType)
Set the 'async' annotation type to be detected at either class or method level. By default, both the Async annotation and the EJB 3.1 javax.ejb.Asynchronous annotation will be detected.

This setter property exists so that developers can provide their own (non-Spring-specific) annotation type to indicate that a method (or all methods of a given class) should be invoked asynchronously.

Parameters:
asyncAnnotationType - the desired annotation type

setExecutor

public void setExecutor(Executor executor)
Set the Executor to use when invoking methods asynchronously.


setBeanClassLoader

public void setBeanClassLoader(ClassLoader classLoader)
Description copied from interface: BeanClassLoaderAware
Callback that supplies the bean class loader to a bean instance.

Invoked after the population of normal bean properties but before an initialization callback such as InitializingBean's InitializingBean.afterPropertiesSet() method or a custom init-method.

Specified by:
setBeanClassLoader in interface BeanClassLoaderAware
Parameters:
classLoader - the owning class loader; may be null in which case a default ClassLoader must be used, for example the ClassLoader obtained via ClassUtils.getDefaultClassLoader()

afterPropertiesSet

public void afterPropertiesSet()
Description copied from interface: InitializingBean
Invoked by a BeanFactory after it has set all bean properties supplied (and satisfied BeanFactoryAware and ApplicationContextAware).

This method allows the bean instance to perform initialization only possible when all bean properties have been set and to throw an exception in the event of misconfiguration.

Specified by:
afterPropertiesSet in interface InitializingBean

getOrder

public int getOrder()
Description copied from interface: Ordered
Return the order value of this object, with a higher value meaning greater in terms of sorting.

Normally starting with 0, with Integer.MAX_VALUE indicating the greatest value. Same order values will result in arbitrary positions for the affected objects.

Higher values can be interpreted as lower priority. As a consequence, the object with the lowest value has highest priority (somewhat analogous to Servlet "load-on-startup" values).

Specified by:
getOrder in interface Ordered
Returns:
the order value

postProcessBeforeInitialization

public Object postProcessBeforeInitialization(Object bean,
                                              String beanName)
Description copied from interface: BeanPostProcessor
Apply this BeanPostProcessor to the given new bean instance before any bean initialization callbacks (like InitializingBean's afterPropertiesSet or a custom init-method). The bean will already be populated with property values. The returned bean instance may be a wrapper around the original.

Specified by:
postProcessBeforeInitialization in interface BeanPostProcessor
Parameters:
bean - the new bean instance
beanName - the name of the bean
Returns:
the bean instance to use, either the original or a wrapped one; if null, no subsequent BeanPostProcessors will be invoked
See Also:
InitializingBean.afterPropertiesSet()

postProcessAfterInitialization

public Object postProcessAfterInitialization(Object bean,
                                             String beanName)
Description copied from interface: BeanPostProcessor
Apply this BeanPostProcessor to the given new bean instance after any bean initialization callbacks (like InitializingBean's afterPropertiesSet or a custom init-method). The bean will already be populated with property values. The returned bean instance may be a wrapper around the original.

In case of a FactoryBean, this callback will be invoked for both the FactoryBean instance and the objects created by the FactoryBean (as of Spring 2.0). The post-processor can decide whether to apply to either the FactoryBean or created objects or both through corresponding bean instanceof FactoryBean checks.

This callback will also be invoked after a short-circuiting triggered by a InstantiationAwareBeanPostProcessor.postProcessBeforeInstantiation(java.lang.Class, java.lang.String) method, in contrast to all other BeanPostProcessor callbacks.

Specified by:
postProcessAfterInitialization in interface BeanPostProcessor
Parameters:
bean - the new bean instance
beanName - the name of the bean
Returns:
the bean instance to use, either the original or a wrapped one; if null, no subsequent BeanPostProcessors will be invoked
