Contrairement à ce que dit le post sur Jboss 6.1, il semble possible de paralléliser des processus.

Pour cela déjà 2 solutions sont fonctionnelles :

  • Schedulable
  • Quartz (et Job)

Schedulable

Dans votre implémentation de "org.jboss.varia.scheduler.Schedulable", il faudra définir la variable "TimerName", pour l'associer sur le timer par défaut, ou bien un autre timer (auto-créé si nouveau) pour que vos différents mbean de temps puissent se chevaucher (êtres lancés en parallèle).

com.placeoweb.schedul.MySchedulable.java
import java.util.Date;
 
import org.jboss.logging.Logger;
import org.jboss.varia.scheduler.Schedulable;
 
public class MySchedulable implements Schedulable {
 
	private final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(this.getClass());
 
	public void perform(Date now, long remainingRepetitions) {
 
		System.out.println("DEBUT");
        logger.debug(this.getClass()+" SCHEDUL DEBUT "+new Date()+" (now:"+now+", remainingRepetitions:"+remainingRepetitions);
        try {
        	Thread.sleep(5000);
		} catch (InterruptedException e) {
			logger.fatal(this.getClass(),e);
		}
        logger.debug(this.getClass()+" SCHEDUL FIN "+new Date());
        System.out.println("FIN");
 
	}
 
}
META-INF/myscheduler-service.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

        <attribute name="SchedulableClass">com.placeoweb.schedul.MySchedulable</attribute>

        <attribute name="InitialRepetitions">-1</attribute>

    </mbean>
 
    <mbean code="org.jboss.varia.scheduler.Scheduler"
           name="MySchedulerTest2:service=Scheduler">
        <attribute name="StartAtStartup">true</attribute>
        <attribute name="SchedulableClass">com.placeoweb.schedul.MySchedulable2</attribute>
        <attribute name="InitialStartDate">NOW</attribute>
        <attribute name="SchedulePeriod">1000</attribute>
        <attribute name="InitialRepetitions">-1</attribute>
        <attribute name="FixedRate">true</attribute>
    </mbean>    
 
</server>

Job et StatefulJob

Dans votre implémentation de "org.quartz.Job", il faudra plutôt implémenter "org.quartz.StatefulJob" pour définir une seule instance de votre mbean, ainsi, si la précédente exécution n'est pas terminée, on attends quelle se termine avant de relancer la suivante.

com.placeoweb.schedul.SimpleQuartzJob.java
import java.util.Date;
 
import org.quartz.JobExecutionContext;
import org.quartz.JobExecutionException;
import org.quartz.StatefulJob;
 
//public class SimpleQuartzJob implements Job {
public class SimpleQuartzJob implements StatefulJob {
 
	@Override
	public void execute(JobExecutionContext context) throws JobExecutionException {
        System.out.println("In SimpleQuartzJob - executing its JOB at " 
                + new Date() + " by " + context.getTrigger().getName());
 
        try {
        	System.out.println("Waiting start");
			Thread.sleep(12000);
			System.out.println("Waiting stop");
		} catch (InterruptedException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
 
	}
 
}

Job scheduling with Quartz

Jobs and triggers

The two fundamental units of Quartz's scheduling package are jobs and triggers. A job is an executable task that can be scheduled, while a trigger provides a schedule for a job. While these two entities could easily have been combined, their separation in Quartz is both intentional and beneficial.

Les deux unités fondamentales du paquet d'ordonnancement de Quartz sont des emplois (jobs) et des déclencheurs (triggers). Un emploi est une tâche exécutable qui peut être prévue, alors qu'un déclencheur fournit un calendrier pour un emploi. Bien que ces deux entités auraient pu être facilement combinés, leur séparation en quartz est à la fois intentionnelle et bénéfique.

  • Exemple 1: Jobs
  • Exemple 2: Simple triggers
  • Exemple 3: Cron triggers
  • Job stores ( JDBCJobStore à la place du défaut RAMJobStore )
Using Quartz Scheduler in a Java web app (servlet)

You'll notice that i'm implementing StatefulJob instead of plain Job - this is so that if the job is still running when it is due to start again, Quartz won't start another instance of it:

//public class SimpleQuartzJob implements Job {
public class SimpleQuartzJob implements StatefulJob {
 
	@Override
	public void execute(JobExecutionContext context) throws JobExecutionException {
        System.out.println("In SimpleQuartzJob - executing its JOB at " 
                + new Date() + " by " + context.getTrigger().getName());
 
        try {
        	System.out.println("Waiting start");
			Thread.sleep(12000);
			System.out.println("Waiting stop");
		} catch (InterruptedException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
 
	}
 
}
