public abstract class OsgiBundleApplicationContextEvent
extends ApplicationContextEvent

Base class for events raised for an OSGi ApplicationContext. Events of this type are raised by the OSGi extender to notify 3rd parties about changes in the lifecycle of an OSGi application context.

Note:One big difference from traditional ApplicationContextEvent is that it is the extender that sends the notification and not the OSGi application context. This allows third parties to be informed of the life-cycle of an application context without forcing bean initialization inside the source context.
