Is anyone using a good 3rd party scheduling framework?
Have a look at: http://www.quartzscheduler.org/quartz/ (ooooh its moved to OpenSymphony!)
We're using this in part with some in-house stuff.
It works well; I actually can't think of any other open -source component that's comparable.
Or is this kind of stuff home-grown right now (java.util.Timer, etc.)? If you've got your own timer, where do you initialize it (like in a servlet's init() or a context listener)?
For the custom stuff, we have a seperate servlet for each job/task (java.util.Timer), and a reference is stored to them in the application context, for admin purposes.
We start each Timer from a single Startup servlet, which gets the majority of its parameters from the web.xml file (ideally, i'd rather this was seperated).
If you have any more questions, shoot, i'll try and answer as best I can.
