[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Schedule an asynchronous method call at startup

[petemuir]

I need to schedule a (repeating, async) method call always and without user intervention.  I tried:

@Startup
  | @Name("setupController")
  | @Scope(ScopeType.APPLICATION)
  | public class SetupController {
  | 	
  | 	@Create
  | 	public void create() throws Exception {
  | 		SetupManager setupManager = (SetupManager) Component.getInstance("setupManager");
  | 		setupManager.setup(0, Frequency.DAILY.getInterval());
  | 	}
  | }

which gives

Am I doing something wrong, is there another way of doing what I want, or  is this not possible?
