/**
 * Similar to @PostConstruct Spring annotation, but executed later in application lifecycle, in order to get transaction
 * management ready. Useful for data initialization for example
 * 
 * Found on http://forum.springsource.org/showthread.php?p=252616#post252616
 * 
 * Usage : annotate a bean method (it should return void and have no argument) that you want to run once at application
 * startup
