The code in the @Bean marked function in Spring Boot is not executed

@Component("example")
public class Example {

    private Consumer<String> exampleHandler = new Consumer<String>() {
        @Override
        public void accept(String s) {
            System.out.println(s);
        }
    };

    @Bean
    public WorkClass workClass(Example example){
        // The code inside this is not executed
        example.exampleHandler.accept("Hello");
        return new WorkClass();
    }
}

I don't have any ideas to solve this problem.

As expected, an instance of Example should be created first, and then the workClass function should be executed

----------------update---------------------------------

The specific code in the workClass function is as follows, which is the code in my real project.

   @Bean
    public DefaultMQPushConsumer canalSyncConsumer(CanalSyncConsumerConfig canalSyncConsumerConfig) throws MQClientException {
        RPCHook rpcHook = new AclClientRPCHook(new SessionCredentials(mqProperties.getAccessKey(), mqProperties.getSecretKey()));
        DefaultMQPushConsumer consumer = new DefaultMQPushConsumer(null, "GID_MEMBER_CENTER_CANAL_SYNC_GROUP", rpcHook);
        consumer.setNamesrvAddr(mqProperties.getNamesAddr());
        final String subE = StringUtils.join(MONITOR_TABLE_NAMES, "||");
        consumer.subscribe("mq_data_mid_platform_sync", subE);
        consumer.registerMessageListener(canalSyncConsumerConfig.consumerHandler);
        consumer.start();
        return consumer;
    }

    @Configuration
    @Component("example")
    public class Example {
    
        private Consumer<String> exampleHandler = new Consumer<String>() {
            @Override
            public void accept(String s) {
                System.out.println(s);
            }
        };
    
        @Bean
        public WorkClass workClass(Example example){
            // The code inside this is not executed
            example.exampleHandler.accept("Hello");
            return new WorkClass();
        }
    }

adding the @Configuration should do the trick if your project is setup properly.
