          org.springframework.scheduling.commonj.TimerManagerFactoryBean

All Implemented Interfaces:

FactoryBean, InitializingBean

public class TimerManagerFactoryBean
extends JndiLocatorSupport
implements FactoryBean, InitializingBean

FactoryBean that retrieves a CommonJ TimerManager and exposes it for bean references.

This is the central convenience class for setting up a CommonJ TimerManager in a Spring context.

Allows for registration of ScheduledTimerListeners. This is the main purpose of this class; the TimerManager itself could also be fetched from JNDI via JndiObjectFactoryBean. In scenarios that just require static registration of tasks at startup, there is no need to access the TimerManager itself in application code.

Note that the TimerManager uses a TimerListener instance that is shared between repeated executions, in contrast to Quartz which instantiates a new Job for each execution.

2.0

Method Detail

setTimerManager

public void setTimerManager(commonj.timers.TimerManager timerManager)

Specify the CommonJ TimerManager to delegate to.

Alternatively, you can also specify the JNDI name of the target TimerManager.

See Also:

setTimerManagerName(java.lang.String)

setTimerManagerName

public void setTimerManagerName(String timerManagerName)

Set the JNDI name of the CommonJ TimerManager.

This can either be a fully qualified JNDI name, or the JNDI name relative to the current environment naming context if "resourceRef" is set to "true".

See Also:

setTimerManager(commonj.timers.TimerManager), JndiLocatorSupport.setResourceRef(boolean)

setScheduledTimerListeners

public void setScheduledTimerListeners(ScheduledTimerListener[] scheduledTimerListeners)

Register a list of ScheduledTimerListener objects with the TimerManager that this FactoryBean creates. Depending on each ScheduledTimerListener's settings, it will be registered via one of TimerManager's schedule methods.

afterPropertiesSet

public void afterPropertiesSet()
                        throws NamingException

Description copied from interface: InitializingBean

Invoked by a BeanFactory after it has set all bean properties supplied (and satisfied BeanFactoryAware and ApplicationContextAware).

This method allows the bean instance to perform initialization only possible when all bean properties have been set and to throw an exception in the event of misconfiguration.

Specified by:

afterPropertiesSet in interface InitializingBean

Throws:

NamingException

getObject

public Object getObject()

Description copied from interface: FactoryBean

Return an instance (possibly shared or independent) of the object managed by this factory.

As with a BeanFactory, this allows support for both the Singleton and Prototype design pattern.

If this FactoryBean is not fully initialized yet at the time of the call (for example because it is involved in a circular reference), throw a corresponding FactoryBeanNotInitializedException.

As of Spring 2.0, FactoryBeans are allowed to return null objects. The factory will consider this as normal value to be used; it will not throw a FactoryBeanNotInitializedException in this case anymore. FactoryBean implementations are encouraged to throw FactoryBeanNotInitializedException themselves now, as appropriate.

Specified by:

getObject in interface FactoryBean

Returns:

an instance of the bean (can be null)

See Also:

FactoryBeanNotInitializedException

getObjectType

public Class getObjectType()

Description copied from interface: FactoryBean

Return the type of object that this FactoryBean creates, or null if not known in advance.

This allows one to check for specific types of beans without instantiating objects, for example on autowiring.

In the case of implementations that are creating a singleton object, this method should try to avoid singleton creation as far as possible; it should rather estimate the type in advance. For prototypes, returning a meaningful type here is advisable too.

This method can be called before this FactoryBean has been fully initialized. It must not rely on state created during initialization; of course, it can still use such state if available.

NOTE: Autowiring will simply ignore FactoryBeans that return null here. Therefore it is highly recommended to implement this method properly, using the current state of the FactoryBean.

Specified by:

getObjectType in interface FactoryBean

Returns:

the type of object that this FactoryBean creates, or null if not known at the time of the call

ListableBeanFactory.getBeansOfType(java.lang.Class)

isSingleton

public boolean isSingleton()

Description copied from interface: FactoryBean

Is the bean managed by this factory a singleton or a prototype? That is, will getObject() always return the same object (a reference that can be cached)?

NOTE: If a FactoryBean indicates to hold a singleton object, the object returned from getObject() might get cached by the owning BeanFactory. Hence, do not return true unless the FactoryBean always exposes the same reference.

The singleton status of the FactoryBean itself will generally be provided by the owning BeanFactory; usually, it has to be defined as singleton there.

Specified by:

isSingleton in interface FactoryBean

Returns:

if this bean is a singleton
