Hello Neale;

I suppose the only difference there is that WOTimers don't appear to occur during a request-response cycle in apps that are not handling concurrent requests -- as one would expect from the run loop. Obviously if this behaviour were required, one could emulate it, but it is nice having it packaged up in the WOTimer.

I filed a bug for this. Even a note in the javadoc would save a fair bit of time here.

cheers.

I suspect this is almost certainly the case. If 5.2 works anything like the old Objective-C WebObjects & Foundation then Timers depend on RunLoops and RunLoops are invoked in the Applications run() method which is in turn called from main(...)

We've noticed exactly the same behaviour with WOTimers not firing when deploying under JBoss. I'm looking into solutions but suspect the easiest will be to port to java Timers.
