Spring and Quartz integration

[Chris Bojinca]

Hi,

I want to use the Scheduler component of Spring (in particular the Quartz scheduler), I configured the class that extends QuartzJobBean and the CronTriggerBean and also the XML Spring config file but I don't know what to run in order to start the scheduler.
Any help?

Thank you.

Let's move this to the Application Framework forum, where the Spring-savvy folks hang out.

You would need to configure a SchedulerFactoryBean, specifying the list of triggers that would be created by the factory, then create an ApplicationContext. When the ApplicationContext is created, the Quartz scheduler will be created and started.

As far as only quartz concern,
This three line of code you have to implement

String configFile = getServletContext().getRealPath("\\WEB-INF\\ddc-quartz.properties");//cfg.getInitParameter("config-file");
SchedulerFactory sf = new StdSchedulerFactory(configFile);
scheduler = sf.getScheduler();
JobDetail jobDetail = new JobDetail("QuARTZJOB",Scheduler.DEFAULT_GROUP,QuartZJob.class);
CronTrigger trigger = new CronTrigger("QUARTZJOBTrigger","QUARTZCollectionTriggerGroup");
trigger.setCronExpression(cfg.getInitParameter("cronExpr"));
scheduler.scheduleJob(jobDetail, trigger);

the above code you need to write in the servlet init method. The deploy the servlet when application starts. Mention your trigger in config parameter.

I have not worked with Spring, but I believe Quartz is indepened application. You just need to deploy the quartz servlet and mention triggers.
