Hi,
I am writing an article for DevWorks on hooking in third party apps into
Geronimo.
The article is basically about writing a GBean for Quartz. Its written
and works pretty good.
Then I got to thinking...why not just place the GBean/module into
Geronimo, so Geronimo can have a powerful scheduler as part of its
offering. Many app servers have a minimal daemon process at best, and I
thought having a full scale scheduler as part of the Geronimo offering
could be a great addition and will give it an edge.
Quartz is developed by OpenSymphony and after reading their license, I
do not see any GPL or LGPL attachments. Does anyone know the licensing
of it?
Anyone have objections or issues to adding it into the distibution?
Jeff
This is right on time for me, as I was looking for a way to achieve the
same thing. JBoss has something similar built-in, so I assume Geronimo
should follow, preferably with a better implementation :-)
Thanks!
