If a ViewModel has a method annotated with {@link Initialize}
or method with the signature <code>public void initialize()</code>
it will be invoked. If no such method is available nothing happens.

@param viewModel
the viewModel that's initialize method (if available) will be
invoked.
@param <ViewModelType>
the generic type of the ViewModel.
If a ViewModel has a method annotated with { @link Initialize } or method with the signature <code > public void initialize () < / code > it will be invoked . If no such method is available nothing happens .
