Hi guys, I define my cron job with <schedule>every 1 minutes</schedule>.
The job fetches an XML every 5 seconds (Thread.sleep(5 * 1000);). In total, the job runs for 60 seconds. While testing I notice that the job doesn't run every 1 minute, but every 2 minutes. This means that "every N minutes" means: when a job has finished running, start the next one N minutes from now. I tried my logic by putting a cronjob online with <schedule>every 2 minutes </schedule>. And this job runs every 4 minutes (the job runs for 2 minutes and waits until 2 minutes are over) Is that a bug or is this intentional? And how to get around this? I need to load this XML every 5 seconds. (the IT guys who publish the XML cannot notify me when the information updates) Thnx! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine for Java" group.
