Application Context Events

[Om Tejas]

Spring 2.5 has following subclasses of ApplciationContextEvents:

ContextStartedEvent
ContextStoppedEvent
ContextClosedEvent
ContextRefreshedEvent

The Spring 2.5 API doc does not give full detail of when these events are posted.
http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/2.5.x/api/

Can someone please explain me or direct me to some link where I can get the understanding of the use-case of these events.

Thanks,
Gaurav
