I like Quartz which is also an open source tool and is widely used. It also has the UNIX cron syntax and is very flexible. -----Original Message----- From: A mailing list for discussion about Sun Microsystem's Java Servlet API Technology.

I've been considering jcrontab for a similar application... see the link below. http://jcrontab.sourceforge.net/index.shtml This is a pure java implementation of cron. It can be started automatically by the container (e.g. tomcat). Scheduling is similar to the UNIX crontab. It's a work in progress, and it may be more fully-featured than what you need (but you should take a look). -----Original Message----- From: Guy Katz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2004 3:08 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: What is the best way to add a timer to a servlet? there are a lot of timer implementations out there. the easiest way is to use java.util.Timer w. a TimerTask. use a ContextListener to create a timer and its timed task and bind it to the context. -----Original Message----- From: Daniel Joshua [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2004 3:58 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: What is the best way to add a timer to a servlet? Hi, How would you add a timer to your web app so that it triggers a method every X minutes? Btw, I am using Tomcat 5.x Regards, Daniel ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
