Spring security update last login date on authentication success - spring

Question

How do I fire my method on authentication success?
I wanted to update my database column 'last login date'. Looked around on google but still can't understand how it should be done.
Here is my spring-security.xml
<beans:beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/security"

<beans:property name="username" value="root"/>

</beans:bean>
<!-- login page are exempted from security-->

</security:session-management>
<!-- access deny for non privileged user -->

<logout logout-success-url="/login?logout" />
</security:http>
<beans:bean id="authenticationSuccessHandler" class="org.springframework.security.web.authentication.SavedRequestAwareAuthenticationSuccessHandler">
<!-- After login, return to the last visited page -->
<beans:property name="useReferer" value="true" />
</beans:bean>
<beans:bean id="authenticationSuccessHandlerWithoutReferer" class="org.springframework.security.web.authentication.SavedRequestAwareAuthenticationSuccessHandler">
<!-- After login, stay to the same page -->
<beans:property name="useReferer" value="false" />
</beans:bean>
<beans:bean class="org.springframework.security.web.access.expression.DefaultWebSecurityExpressionHandler"/>
<authentication-manager>
<authentication-provider>
<jdbc-user-service data-source-ref="dataSource1"

authorities-by-username-query="query-for-username-enabled-authority" />
<password-encoder hash="md5"/>
</authentication-provider>
</authentication-manager>
I am new to Spring Security. Hope someone could help me out.
EDIT
#Component
public class MyAuthenticationSuccessHandler extends SavedRequestAwareAuthenticationSuccessHandler {
#Autowired
AppUserDAO appUserDAO;
#Override
public void onAuthenticationSuccess(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response,
Authentication authentication) throws IOException, ServletException {
SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
String a = df.format(new Date());
System.out.println(authentication.getName()+"### "+a);
Authentication auth = SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication();
String username = auth.getPrincipal().toString();
appUserDAO.updateLastLoginAndIp(a, username);
}
}

You can override authenticationSuccessHandler with any custom implementation you wanted to perform. Here you want to update user login date or some other similar activities
public class CustomAuthenticationSuccessHandler extends
SavedRequestAwareAuthenticationSuccessHandler {
#Override
public void onAuthenticationSuccess(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response,
Authentication authentication) throws IOException,ServletException {
super.onAuthenticationSuccess(request, response, authentication);
//Now add your custom logic to update database
}
}
Now you need to update authenticationSuccessHandler confiuguration in xml file as shown below.
<beans:bean id="authenticationSuccessHandler" class="yourpackage.CustomAuthenticationSuccessHandler">
<beans:property name="useReferer" value="true" />
</beans:bean>
Optionally,
<beans:bean id="authenticationSuccessHandlerWithoutReferer" class="yourpackage.CustomAuthenticationSuccessHandler">
<beans:property name="useReferer" value="false" />
</beans:bean>
