import org.springframework.beans.factory.Aware;

Interface to be implemented by any object that wishes to be notified of the MessageSource (typically the ApplicationContext) that it runs in.

Note that the MessageSource can usually also be passed on as bean reference (to arbitrary bean properties or constructor arguments), because it is defined as bean with name "messageSource" in the application context.

Set the MessageSource that this object runs in.

Invoked after population of normal bean properties but before an init callback like InitializingBean's afterPropertiesSet or a custom init-method. Invoked before ApplicationContextAware's setApplicationContext.

Params:
  • messageSource – message source to be used by this object
