Why isn't an custom implemented VaadinServiceInitListener is listening in vaadin 13.0.2?

Question

I would like to validate user is signed in or not to achieve it i found something called VaadinServiceInitListener in vaadin 13.0.2 This class is used to listen to BeforeEnter event of all UIs in order to check whether a user is signed in or not before allowing entering any page.

I have created an vaadin 13.0.2 project with app-layout-addon by appreciated implemented login functionality and VaadinServiceInitListener to check whether a user is signed in or not.

public class AAACATInitListener implements VaadinServiceInitListener {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    private static InAppSessionContextImpl appContextImpl;

    @Override
    public void serviceInit(ServiceInitEvent event) {
        System.out.println("in service init event");
        event.getSource().addUIInitListener(new UIInitListener() {
            private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

            @Override
            public void uiInit(UIInitEvent event) {

                event.getUI().addBeforeEnterListener(new BeforeEnterListener() {
                    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

                    @Override
                    public void beforeEnter(BeforeEnterEvent event) {

                        appContextImpl = (InAppSessionContextImpl)VaadinSession.getCurrent().getAttribute("context");

                        if (appContextImpl == null) {
                            WebBrowser webBrowser = UI.getCurrent().getSession().getBrowser();
                            String address = webBrowser.getAddress();

                            if(RememberAuthService.isAuthenticated(address) != null && !RememberAuthService.isAuthenticated(address).isEmpty()) {
                                //System.out.println("Found Remembered User....");
                                IBLSessionContext iblSessionContext = null;
                                try {
                                    iblSessionContext = new UserBLManager().doRememberedStaffUserLogin(RememberAuthService.isAuthenticated(address), "");
                                    if(iblSessionContext != null) {
                                        InAppSessionContextImpl localAppContextImpl = new InAppSessionContextImpl();
                                        localAppContextImpl.setBLSessionContext(iblSessionContext);
                                        localAppContextImpl.setModuleGroupList(iblSessionContext.getSessionAccessControl().getPermittedModuleGroups());
                                        appContextImpl = localAppContextImpl;

                                        event.rerouteTo(ApplicationMainView.class);

                                    }else {

                                } catch (Exception e){

                                event.rerouteTo(LoginView.class);
                            }
                        } else {

                            InAppSessionContextImpl localAppContextImpl = new InAppSessionContextImpl();
                            localAppContextImpl.setBLSessionContext(appContextImpl.getBLSessionContext());
                            localAppContextImpl.setModuleGroupList(appContextImpl.getModuleGroupList());
                            appContextImpl = localAppContextImpl;
                            event.rerouteTo(ApplicationMainView.class);
                        }

                    }
                });
            }
        });
    }

    public static void setBLSessionContext(IBLSessionContext iblSessionContext) {
        appContextImpl.setBLSessionContext(iblSessionContext);

    public static void setModuleGroupList(List<ModuleGroupVO> moduleGroupList) {

        }

        @Override
        public void setAttribute(String key, Object attribute) {
            attributeMap.put(key, attribute);
        }

        @Override
        public Object getAttribute(String key) {
            return attributeMap.get(key);
        }
    }
}

Expected results redirect to login page if user not signed in or else to main application page but AAACATInitListener is not listening.

If you are using Spring, simply add a @Component annotation to the class and it should work. If youre not using Spring, follow @codinghaus' answer.
