Destruction Methods:-The destruction method of a spring bean container is called when bean is removed from the spring container.

Example:
Address.java

package com.chandan;

public class Address {

    private String city;

    public Address()
    {

    }
    public String getCity() {
        return city;
    }

    public void setCity(String city) {
        this.city = city;
    }

}

Teacher.java

package com.chandan;

public class Teacher {
    private String name;
    private int id;
    private Address address;

    public Address getAddress() {
        return address;
    }

    public void setAddress(Address address) {
        this.address = address;
    }


    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }
    public int getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public void setId(int id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public void destroy()
    {
        System.out.println("Bean is Destroyed Now");
    }

}

App.java

package com.app;

import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.support.AbstractApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;

import com.babita.Department;
import com.babita.Employee;
import com.chandan.Teacher;
import com.manish.Course;
import com.manish.Student;

public class App {

    /**
     * @param args
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        AbstractApplicationContext ctx=new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(new String[]{"app-context.xml"});


        Teacher teach=(Teacher)ctx.getBean("teacher");


        System.out.println("Id:="+teach.getId());
        System.out.println("Name:="+teach.getName());
        System.out.println("City:="+teach.getAddress().getCity());
        ctx.registerShutdownHook();

    }
