Have you taken a look at Quartz? http://www.opensymphony.com/quartz/
Quartz is a full-featured, open source job scheduling system that can be integrated with, or used along side virtually any J2EE or J2SE application - from the smallest stand-alone application to the largest e-commerce system. Quartz can be used to create simple or complex schedules for executing tens, hundreds, or even tens-of-thousands of jobs; jobs whose tasks are defined as standard Java components or EJBs. The Quartz Scheduler includes many enterprise-class features, such as JTA transactions and clustering. Quartz is freely usable, licensed under the Apache 2.0 license. Russ -----Original Message----- From: Jaco Gillman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2007 11:10 AM To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: JMX TimerMBean & Tomcat To Whom It May Concern: I am currently having some issues with implementing a TimerMBean for scheduling on a Tomcat instance. Basically I want to be able to have a properties file of configurations for a scheduler that cleans up a cached folder in our application and I was investigating the possibility of using the TimerMBean for this. I have by now used Google to search on this topic and I am fairly confident in saying that not a lot of people have used MBeans (and more specific TimerMBeans) in a Tomcat instance. Or is there another (beter) solution for getting what I have described? Is there any possibility that you can help me? Any help would be much appreciated.
