I want a managed bean to run internally on start up in my JSF web application when the application loads. How can I write this class and configure in Glassfish?
In JSF with CDI, observe the initialization of the application scope.
@Named
@ApplicationScoped
public class App {
public void startup(@Observes @Initialized(ApplicationScoped.class) Object context) {
// ...
}
public void shutdown(@Observes @Destroyed(ApplicationScoped.class) Object context) {
// ...
}
}
When having OmniFaces at hands, this can be simplified with @Eager
.
@Named
@Eager
@ApplicationScoped
public class App {
@PostConstruct
public void startup() {
// ...
}
@PreDestroy
public void shutdown() {
// ...
}
}
In JSF 2.2- with the now deprecated javax.faces.bean
annotations, use an application scoped managed bean which is eagerly initialized.
@ManagedBean(eager=true)
@ApplicationScoped
public class App {
@PostConstruct
public void startup() {
// ...
}
@PreDestroy
public void shutdown() {
// ...
}
}
