[JBoss 6.0 M2 / EJB 3.1] The method createCalendarTimer(ScheduleExpression) is undefined for the type TimerService

[longbeach]

Hi,

I know the Timer feature of EJB 3.1 is not implemented yet in JBoss 6.0 M2 but i am just wondering how come the createCalendarTimer(SchedulerExpression) method is not recognized yet.

That method is part of the TimerService interface that comes with EJB 3.1

Is this normal ? Am i missing something ?

import javax.annotation.Resource;    
import javax.annotation.PostConstruct;
import javax.ejb.ScheduleExpression;
import javax.ejb.Stateless;
import javax.ejb.Timer;
import javax.ejb.TimerService;
import javax.inject.Inject;

import com.eni.dvtejb31.ejb.entitybeans.Contact;

@Stateless
public class SessionBeanSchedulerExpr {
    ...
     
     @Resource 
     TimerService timerService; 
     
     @PostConstruct 
    public void init() {   
        ScheduleExpression expr = new ScheduleExpression().dayOfWeek("1,5").hour(10).minute(0);;
        Timer timer = timerService.createCalendarTimer(expr);  // method not recognized during compilation
    }  
    
}

The EJB3.1 API jar that's shipped in 6.0 M2 is not fully complete. It doesn't have the full EJB3.1 API set. 6.0 M3 will have it.
