Hello Brilliant people out there,
I've created a Jira plugin to do a specific task for us and i need to schedule this plugin call every few hours. I'm trying to use Spring annotations @Scheduled(fixedDelay = 6*1000) on the method and @Component@EnableScheduling on my Bean class. My bean also uses InitializingBean, DisposableBean to do few bits and pieces for us before and after bean is created & before destruction.
Now when i perform my tests on local machine (using JUnit) the method call gets scheduled and works fine . What seems very strange that when this plugin is put into Jira which is deployed on Tomcat it doesn't seem to schedule . The afterPropertiesSet & destroy methods are being called up properly but not @Scheduled(fixedDelay = 6*1000)
I've done a lot of research about this from last few days and also have got alternate solution using Atlassian Schedulers but I fail to understand why @Scheduled(fixedDelay = 6*1000) doesn't work ?
I've tried to put all the relevant information but if something is missing please ask :-) Thank you for your help!!
@Component
@EnableScheduling
public class RemedyJiraIntegrationListener implements InitializingBean, DisposableBean {
RemedyJiraIntegration remedyJiraIntegration = null;
public RemedyJiraIntegrationListener() {
remedyJiraIntegration = RemedyJiraIntegrationSingletonInstance.getInstance();
}
/**
* Called when the plugin has been enabled.
* @throws Exception
*/
@Override
public void afterPropertiesSet() throws Exception {
LoggingUtility.writeRemedyJiraLog("Installation of a plugin has scheduled a Job at : " + new Date());
// To-do
}
@Scheduled(fixedDelay = 6*1000)
public void scheduleFixedRateTask() {
LoggingUtility.writeRemedyJiraLog("Fixed rate task - " + System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000);
System.out.println(
"Fixed rate task - " + System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000);
}
/**
* Called when the plugin is being disabled or uninstalled.
* @throws Exception
*/
@Override
@PreDestroy
public void destroy() throws Exception {
LoggingUtility.writeRemedyJiraLog("Uninstallation or disablement of a Plugin started at : " + new Date());
// To-do
}
}
