Les Hazlewood commented on SHIRO-364:
-------------------------------------

'created' can be interpreted in a number of ways (e.g. after all of its 
properties have been set, only then is it finished being created).

My vote would be:

- notifyInstantiated(InstantiatedBeanEvent event);
- notifyPropertySet(PropertySetBeanEvent event);   The event's propertyValue 
could be an Object (resolved reference) or a String (primitive value yet to be 
converted).  If the bean has a getter for that property, they can get the 
converted value by calling bean.getWhateverProperty().
- notifyPropertiesSet(ConfiguredBeanEvent event);
- notifyDestroyed(DestroyedBeanEvent event);

The reason for the event instead of multiple arguments is for compatibility 
over time:  Coarse-grained arguments (an object) allow us to add properties to 
it later.  Changing method signatures however would break backwards 
compatibility.

The event could also have other useful information, for example, a reference 
back to the overall bean map in case the event listener wanted to inspect other 
beans if necessary.

> The ini factory/configuration  has been described as a poor man's dependency 
> injection.  Even though other DI mechanisms are often used when more power 
> and configurability is required, the ini factory is still quite popular.  
> Adding the ability to register "bean listeners" that are notified of the 
> beans that get created would allow us to add some more complex functionality 
> to shiro, decouple it from our core classes, and support it in all of our 
> supported DI solutions.
