I have class MyModel.java and I'm constructing it using @PostConstruct.
@ConfigurationProperties(prefix = "test")
public static class MyModel extends Model {
@PostConstruct
private void postConstruct() {
}
}
Now I want to call a method of Model class(contains field and getter setter) say:
сlass Model {
....
//fields and getter setter
public void testValues(){
}
}
Now I want to call testValues() in @PostContruct .
How can I call it ?
As part of the Spring bean's life cycle, afterPropertiesSet() will be called after @PostConstruct method, you can look here, so you can use afterPropertiesSet() to call your testValues() as shown below:
MyModel class:
public class MyModel extends Model implements InitializingBean {
@PostConstruct
private void postConstruct() {
//set your values here
}
@Override
public void afterPropertiesSet() {
testValues();
}
}
I have added the below notes from the link on spring bean's lifecylce:
Multiple lifecycle mechanisms configured for the same bean, with different initialization methods, are called as follows (emphasis is mine):
Methods annotated with @PostConstruct (called first)
afterPropertiesSet() as defined by the InitializingBean callback interface (called after @PostConstruct method)
custom configured init() method (called after afterPropertiesSet method)
