All Implemented Interfaces:
  javax.management.MBeanRegistration, javax.management.NotificationBroadcaster, SchedulerMBean, Service, ServiceMBean

public class Scheduler
extends ServiceMBeanSupport
implements SchedulerMBean

Scheduler Instance to allow clients to run this as a scheduling service for any Schedulable instances.
ATTENTION: The scheduler instance only allows to run one schedule at a time. Therefore when you want to run two schedules create to instances with this MBean. Suggested Object Name for the MBean are:
jboss:service=Scheduler,schedule=
This way you should not run into a name conflict.

  Revisions:

  20010814 Cameron:

  - Checks if the TimerMBean is already loaded
  - Created a SchedulerNotificationFilter so that each Scheduler only get its notifications
  - Stop was broken because removeNotification( Integer ) was broken

  20011026 Andy:

  - Move the SchedulerNotificationFilter to become an internal class and renamed to NotificationFilter
  - MBean is not bind/unbind to JNDI server anymore

  20020117 Andy:

  - Change the behaviour when the Start Date is in the past. Now the Scheduler will behave as the Schedule is never stopped and find the next available time to start with respect to the settings. Therefore you can restart JBoss without adjust your Schedule every time. BUT you will still loose the calls during the Schedule was down.
  - Added parsing capabilities to setInitialStartDate. Now NOW: current time, and a string in a format the SimpleDataFormat understand in your environment (US: m/d/yy h:m a) but of course the time in ms since 1/1/1970.
  - Some fixes like the stopping a Schedule even if it already stopped etc.

  20020118 Andy:

  - Added the ability to call another MBean instead of an instance of the given Schedulable class. Use setSchedulableMBean() to specify the JMX Object Name pointing to the given MBean. Then if the MBean does not contain the same method as the Schedulable instance you have to specify the method with setSchedulableMBeanMethod(). There you can use some constants.

  20020119 Andy:

  - Added a helper method isActive()
  - Fixed a bug not indicating that no MBean is used when setSchedulableClass() is called.
  - Fixed a bug therefore that when NOW is set as initial start date a restart of the Schedule will reset the start date to the current date
  - Fixed a bug because the start date was update during recalculation of the start date when the original start date is in the past (see above). With this you could restart the schedule even after all hits were fired when the schedule was not started immediately after the initial start date was set.

  Description copied from interface: `SchedulerMBean`
  Sets the method name to be called on the Schedulable MBean. It can optionally be followed by an opening bracket, list of attributes (see below) and a closing bracket. The list of attributes can contain:
  - NOTIFICATION which will be replaced by the timers notification instance (javax.management.Notification)
  - DATE which will be replaced by the date of the notification call (java.util.Date)
  - REPETITIONS which will be replaced by the number of remaining repetitions (long)
  - SCHEDULER_NAME which will be replaced by the Object Name of the Scheduler (javax.management.ObjectName)
  - any full qualified Class name which the Scheduler will be set a "null" value for it
  An example could be: "doSomething( NOTIFICATION, REPETITIONS, java.lang.String )" where the Scheduler will pass the timer's notification instance, the remaining repetitions as int and a null to the MBean's doSomething() method which must have the following signature: doSomething( javax.management.Notification, long, java.lang.String ).
  Specified by:

  Specified by:
    `getSchedulePeriod` in interface `SchedulerMBean`
  Following copied from interface: `org.jboss.util.SchedulerMBean`
  Returns:
    Schedule Period between two scheduled calls in Milliseconds. It will always be bigger than 0 except it returns -1 then the schedule is stopped.

### setSchedulePeriod

    public void setSchedulePeriod(long pPeriod)

  Description copied from interface: `SchedulerMBean`
  Sets the Schedule Period between two scheduled call.
  Specified by:
    `setSchedulePeriod` in interface `SchedulerMBean`
  Following copied from interface: `org.jboss.util.SchedulerMBean`
  Parameters:
    `pPeriod` - Time between to scheduled calls (after the initial call) in Milliseconds. This value must be bigger than 0.
  Throws:
    `java.security.InvalidParameterException` - If the given value is less or equal than 0

### getInitialStartDate

    public java.lang.String getInitialStartDate()

  Specified by:
    `getInitialStartDate` in interface `SchedulerMBean`
  Following copied from interface: `org.jboss.util.SchedulerMBean`
  Returns:
    Date (and time) of the first scheduled. For value see `setInitialStartDate()` method.

### setInitialStartDate

    public void setInitialStartDate(java.lang.String pStartDate)

  Description copied from interface: `SchedulerMBean`
  Sets the first scheduled call. If the date is in the past the scheduler tries to find the next available start date.
  Specified by:
    `setInitialStartDate` in interface `SchedulerMBean`
  Following copied from interface: `org.jboss.util.SchedulerMBean`
  Parameters:
    `pStartDate` - Date when the initial call is scheduled. It can be either:
    - NOW: date will be the current date (new Date()) plus 1 seconds
    - Date as String able to be parsed by SimpleDateFormat with default format
    - Milliseconds since 1/1/1970
    If the date is in the past the Scheduler will search a start date in the future with respect to the initial repe- titions and the period between calls. This means that when you restart the MBean (restarting JBoss etc.) it will start at the next scheduled time. When no start date is available in the future the Scheduler will not start.
    Example: if you start your Schedulable everyday at Noon and you restart your JBoss server then it will start at the next Noon (the same if started before Noon or the next day if start after Noon).

    public long getInitialRepetitions()

  Specified by:
    `getInitialRepetitions` in interface `SchedulerMBean`
