Constructor Detail

EventPublicationInterceptor

public EventPublicationInterceptor()
Method Detail

setApplicationEventClass

public void setApplicationEventClass(Class applicationEventClass)
Set the application event class to publish.

The event class must have a constructor with a single Object argument for the event source. The interceptor will pass in the invoked object.

Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the supplied Class is null or if it is not an ApplicationEvent subclass or if it does not expose a constructor that takes a single Object argument

setApplicationEventPublisher

public void setApplicationEventPublisher(ApplicationEventPublisher applicationEventPublisher)
Description copied from interface: ApplicationEventPublisherAware
Set the ApplicationEventPublisher that this object runs in.

Invoked after population of normal bean properties but before an init callback like InitializingBean's afterPropertiesSet or a custom init-method. Invoked before ApplicationContextAware's setApplicationContext.

Specified by:
setApplicationEventPublisher in interface ApplicationEventPublisherAware
Parameters:
applicationEventPublisher - event publisher to be used by this object

afterPropertiesSet

public void afterPropertiesSet()
                        throws Exception
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
Throws:
Exception - in the event of misconfiguration (such as failure to set an essential property) or if initialization fails.

invoke

public Object invoke(MethodInvocation invocation)
              throws Throwable
Specified by:
invoke in interface MethodInterceptor
Throws:
Throwable
