An alternative to implementing InitializingBean is specifying a custom init-method, for example in an XML bean definition. For a list of all bean lifecycle methods, see the BeanFactory javadocs.

 public  void afterPropertiesSet() throws Exception
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.
