ESB Job Scheduling

[while_true]

Hey guys,

Of what I understood, ESB provides a functionality to handle the scheduling of jobs: "Schedule Providers".

My question is, how do they really work? Like, they need a message to enter the bus so they can be triggered or is it possible to do like we do with scheduler-service.xml where we are to detail at what time do we want the job scheduler to start and for how many times, etc.?

Do the "simple-scheduler" or the "cron-scheduler" provide this sort of thing?

Grateful for your attention.

Best regards

Yes, they do.    I think they are described pretty well in the Services guide, and there's also an example quickstart - scheduled_services - if you want to try it out.

Tom,

Thank you for your contribution!

I had already looked at the schedule_services quickstart but didn't pay that much of attention... After reading your answer I took a second, much deeper, look at the example and got what I wanted

I used a cron-scheduler and it solved my problem completely!!

Once again thank you for your time!

Best regards.
