Anything like @PreDestroy in the spring-framework?

Solution

If you define a bean that implements the DisposableBean interface then Spring will call the

void destroy() throws Exception;

method before destrying the bean.

That's one way, the other is when your bean doesn't have to implement the given interface. In one of yours ConfigurationSupport classes your bean has to be defined as as pulic method with the @Bean annotation.

   @Bean (destroyMethod="yourDestroyMethod")
   public YourBean yourBean() {
      YourBean yourBean = new YourBean();

      return yourBean;
   }

The method "yourDestroyMethod" has to be defined in YourBean.class and then Spring will call it before destroying the bean.

For more info see the Spring documentation: Destruction callbacks

UPDATE

The third way... I would even say the better way would be to specifiy "init-method" and "destroy-method" of your bean... like this: mkyong.com/spring/spring-init-method-and-destroy-method-example

This solves the problem ot third-party dependency beans, and liberates the the code unnecessary Spring interfaces..
