EJB-3.1 @Startup & @Schedule anotation in Apache Tomee for Timer Execution

Question

I have following code to run on Apache-tomee, i am using eclipse for coding, and i want to run my simple schedule job using @Schedule annotation at application start-up.

@Startup
@Singleton
public class ScheduleEJB {
    private static int count = 0;
    @Schedule(second="*/10", minute="*", hour="*", info="MyTimer")
    public void execute() {
       System.out.println("its running count..."+count);
       count++;
    }
}

When i deployed this code on Tomee, it get me following message and unable to run my schedule method execute() automatically at startup, where as this code works fine in glassfish, but i am not going to use it either glassfish of jboss.

Answer 1

Did you already have a look to TomEE examples page? There is a similar example which actually running.

http://openejb.apache.org/examples-trunk/schedule-methods/README.html

Maybe you could give it a try and check what is actually different with yours.

yes, i have checked its the same thing, but my problem was not how to code it, was how i will be able to run that code in tomee, and interestingly what i found the solution, that if i run my project by deploying directly from eclipse on a running tomee server, it will not start the timer, but when i just deployed the app and restart the server it just start my timer, so i am unable to figure out the reason. – Fy

Answer 2

Your code runs fine on last release of TomEE. What was your version?

Dorella

it was apache-tomee-1.5.1-plus, yes it runs and working fine now, but for which i have to restart tomee after deploying my code... the reason i am unable to figure out – Fy
