title: Why method contextInitialized doesn't invoke?
body: <p>I wrote following java classes:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Configuration
  public class UiConfig {
  
  
      @Bean
      public MessageSource messageSource() {

          return messageSource;
      }
      @Bean

          AppListener appListener = new AppListener();
          System.out.println();
          System.out.println();
          System.out.println(" appListener method ");
          System.out.println();
          System.out.println();
          return appListener;
      }
      @Bean

          System.out.println();
          System.out.println();
          return myListener;
      }
  }
  class MyListener extends ContextLoaderListener {
  
      @Override
      public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent event) {
          System.out.println();
          System.out.println();
          System.out.println(" hello ContextLoaderListener ");
          System.out.println();
          System.out.println();
      }
  }
  class AppListener implements ApplicationListener&lt;ContextRefreshedEvent&gt; {
  
          @Override
          public void onApplicationEvent(ContextRefreshedEvent event) {
              System.out.println();
              System.out.println();
              System.out.println(" hello AppListener");
              System.out.println();
              System.out.println();
          }
  
      }

  <p>I don't understand why I don't see string <code>" hello ContextLoaderListener "</code> at this log?
  Can you explain me it?</p>
  
  <p><strong>P.S.</strong> </p>
  
  <p>in web.xml I have this entry </p>
