spring event listener mechanism

and the spring Event Listener class diagram as follows:

Where: EventListener and EventObject from java.util 

 

Examples

1, define the event

public  class OrderEvent the extends the ApplicationEvent {
     / ** 
     * order to create an event 
     * @param Source
      * / 
    public OrderEvent (Object Source) {
         Super (Source); 
    } 
} 

2, listen for events

/ ** 
 * event concerned OrderEvent, spring comes 
 * / 
@Component 
public  class SmsListener the implements the ApplicationListener <OrderEvent> {
     public  void onApplicationEvent (OrderEvent Event) { 
        System.out.println ( "execute SMS" ); 
    } 
}　　

3, the incident released

@Component
 public  class OrderService { 
    @Resource 
    ApplicationContext applicationContext; 

    public  void saveOrder () { 
        System.out.println ( "Order saved successfully" );
         // execute release [inheritance: ApplicationEvent} 
        / ** common events: 
         * ApplicationContextEvent, RequestHandledEvent, ServletRequestHandledEvent, PayloadApplicationEvent 
         * 
         * ApplicationContextEvent four parent 
         * ContextStartedEvent lifecycle start 
         * ContextRefreshedEvent refresh completed 
         * ContextClosedEvent lifecycle closed 
         * ContextStoppedEvent life cycle stop 
         * /
        OrderEvent orderEvent = new OrderEvent("");
        applicationContext.publishEvent(orderEvent);
    }
}

 

AbstractApplicationContext in publishEvent analysis method:

    public void publishEvent(ApplicationEvent event) {
        publishEvent(event, null);
    }
        
        public void publishEvent(Object event) {
        publishEvent(event, null);
    }

    protected void publishEvent(Object event, @Nullable ResolvableType eventType) {
        // Decorate event as an ApplicationEvent if necessary
        ApplicationEvent applicationEvent;
        if (event instanceof ApplicationEvent) {
            applicationEvent = (ApplicationEvent) event;
        }
        else {
            applicationEvent = new PayloadApplicationEvent<>(this, event); //PayloadApplicationEvent 的父类为ApplicationEvent
            if (eventType == null) {
                eventType = ((PayloadApplicationEvent) applicationEvent).getResolvableType();
            }
        }

        // Multicast right now if possible - or lazily once the multicaster is initialized
        if (this.earlyApplicationEvents != null) { //Set<ApplicationEvent> earlyApplicationEvents
            this.earlyApplicationEvents.add(applicationEvent);
        }
        else {
            getApplicationEventMulticaster().multicastEvent(applicationEvent, eventType);
        }

        // Publish event via parent context as well...
        if (this.parent != null) {
            if (this.parent instanceof AbstractApplicationContext) {
                ((AbstractApplicationContext) this.parent).publishEvent(event, eventType);
            }
            else {
                this.parent.publishEvent(event);
            }
        }
    }

 

 Initializing the context of multicast event AbstractApplicationContext.refresh () in:

    @Override
    public void refresh() throws BeansException, IllegalStateException {
        synchronized (this.startupShutdownMonitor) {
            // Prepare this context for refreshing.
            prepareRefresh();

            // Tell the subclass to refresh the internal bean factory.
            ConfigurableListableBeanFactory beanFactory = obtainFreshBeanFactory();

            // Prepare the bean factory for use in this context.
            prepareBeanFactory(beanFactory);

            try {
                // Allows post-processing of the bean factory in context subclasses.
                postProcessBeanFactory(beanFactory);

                // Invoke factory processors registered as beans in the context.
                invokeBeanFactoryPostProcessors(beanFactory);

                // Register bean processors that intercept bean creation.
                registerBeanPostProcessors(beanFactory);

                // Initialize message source for this context.
                initMessageSource();

                // Initialize event multicaster for this context.
                initApplicationEventMulticaster();

                // Initialize other special beans in specific context subclasses.
                onRefresh();

                // Check for listener beans and register them.
                registerListeners();

                // Instantiate all remaining (non-lazy-init) singletons.
                finishBeanFactoryInitialization(beanFactory);

                // Last step: publish corresponding event.
                finishRefresh();
            }

            catch (BeansException ex) {

                }

                // Destroy already created singletons to avoid dangling resources.
                destroyBeans();

                // Reset 'active' flag.
                cancelRefresh(ex);

                // Propagate exception to caller.
                throw ex;
            }

            finally {
                // Reset common introspection caches in Spring's core, since we
                // might not ever need metadata for singleton beans anymore...
                resetCommonCaches();
            }
