Hi, I'm not sure if I've asked this before, or if I should be asking on a general EJB list.
I'd like to implement a job scheduler in J2EE. This would shcedule the execution of EJB methods at a specified time in the future. It would have to be persistent, and jobsd would be rescheduled upon appserver restart. Is it as simple as using the Timer and TimerTask in java.util to implement an app that is started with the <client-module> tag? Does it matter as far as Orion goes whether I use a java.util.Timer as a daemon or not? What can I do if the app, or the Timer object dies at any stage? I've had problems where after some time something goes wrong I get a strange Remote Exception, and the only solution is to restart the VM. What might cause this? Any opinions on this? How do I make this solution robust is what I am asking. Thanks for any help, Justin
