Hello everybody,

what happens when a timeout occurs before the previous timeout method execution finishes.

For example, lets there is a timer which fires every 10 seconds.

@Timeout
private void doSomething (Timer timer) {
*// lets say this method takes random time of up to 15 minutes to finish sometimes.*
}

Please enlighten me what happens here.. Does JBoss store all the fired timeouts in a queue or would it just let go if the previous timeout method execution is still on, and wait for the next timeout.

Thank you,
A.
