Quartz differences

[vgriffin]

I want to use Quartz in a JBoss application. I have methods I wrote for use in another server, many of which I want to use in JBoss. I use persistent Quartz and have added listeners to provide an event log in addition to other features. My existing application uses Quartz 1.6.0.

I noticed that the quartz.jar bundled with JBoss 4.2.2 is dated 20 Feb 2007 while Quartz 1.6.0, the latest release available, is dated 6 Nov 2006. I also notice that some of the class files differ in size between the two jar files.

How does the JBoss version of Quartz differ from Quartz 1.6.0?

You need not depend on the quartz jar that is shipped with JBoss. You can package your own version of Quartz in your application and enable classloader isolation of your application. See the details at
