There are several Job scheduling libraries such as Quartz and Obsidian. However, does anyone know of a library that has ready made tools/classes for commonly used tasks. For example, a job that, when kicked off, keeps polling to check if a file is available at a particular location. Or a Job that executes an SQL query or a Job that sends an email, or a Job to upload or download a file.

What I have seen in several project is that these are the kind of requirements that pretty much every application has once it is put in production. Every time you have to hand code these things. I imagine a library that contains configurable job classes would be very useful.

thank you,
Paul.
