Interface Activate

public interface Activate

extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation

Indicates that a method is used to inject a stage with its configuration object during the activate phase of a configuration update. The method will also be invoked when the stage is initialized after Prepare has been called. The annotated method must have a single parameter whose type is the same as that of the containing class's Prepare method. The return type of the method must be void. Only a single method on a class may be annotated with the Activate annotation, however, both a superclass and its subclass may be annotated. In this case, the superclass method will be invoked before invoking the subclass method.

The purpose of the Activate callback is to put into effect or "activate" a configuration change that has previously been prepared. Activate must not fail. A class that contains a Prepare method must also contain an Activate method.
