Pontus, I actually gave up on CronScheduledRoutePolicy because I don't want to have to calculate an absolute suspend time based on the start/resume time. What I need is a cron-based policy that specifies the initial start time, which there-after becomes the resume time - this is a cron expression - then I just want a relative run duration, after which, the route is suspended until the next cron-specified resume time.
So, after a few days, I finally have that and it works in the unit test - even the initial one-off route start will transparently switch to a resume schedule. The only problem is that I really need this policy to control a route with an FTP consumer. What I'm seeing is that even though the route is suspended, the FTP consumer continues to poll - this partially answers my question about the coding of ScheduleRoutePolicy - which only suspends the consumer - not the route, itself. While my policy suspends the route. I suspect that any route which has a component using PollingConsumerPollStrategy will not behave as I though - which is - you only need to suspend the route and all it's components will be suspended. My suspicion is that components whose Consumers are under the influence of PollingConsumerPollStrategy may not suspend by only suspended the route. -Chris On Sat, Mar 23, 2013 at 3:15 AM, Pontus Ullgren <ullg...@gmail.com> wrote: > This is probably because your route is autoStart=false.
