Class ApplicationPidFileWriter

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.boot.system.ApplicationPidFileWriter

All Implemented Interfaces:

EventListener, org.springframework.context.ApplicationListener<SpringApplicationEvent>, org.springframework.core.Ordered

public class ApplicationPidFileWriter
extends Object
implements org.springframework.context.ApplicationListener<SpringApplicationEvent>, org.springframework.core.Ordered

An ApplicationListener that saves application PID into file. This application listener will be triggered exactly once per JVM, and the file name can be overridden at runtime with a System property or environment variable named "PIDFILE" (or "pidfile") or using a spring.pid.file property in the Spring Environment.

If PID file can not be created no exception is reported. This behavior can be changed by assigning true to System property or environment variable named PID_FAIL_ON_WRITE_ERROR (or "pid_fail_on_write_error") or to spring.pid.fail-on-write-error property in the Spring Environment.

Note: access to the Spring Environment is only possible when the triggerEventType is set to ApplicationEnvironmentPreparedEvent, ApplicationReadyEvent, or ApplicationPreparedEvent.
