[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBAS-3870) Clone the JBossMX javax.management.timer.Timer implementation, to a jboss package

Clone the JBossMX javax.management.timer.Timer implementation, to a jboss package --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBAS-3870 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-3870 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: JMX Reporter: Dimitris Andreadis Assigned To: Dimitris Andreadis Fix For: JBossAS-5.0.0.CR1, JBossAS-4.2.0.CR1 There are indications that the jdk5 implementation of javax.management.timer.Timer uses internally a single-threaded implementation for executing scheduled tasks, so scheduling of multiple tasks is affected when moving from jdk1.4 and the jboss implementation of Timer, to a jdk5 runtime. The JBossMX Timer implementation in contrast uses a dynamically extensible thread pool to execute scheduled tasks. Since we don't control the jdk5 implementation, a simple solution is to clone the jboss timer into a new package, e.g. org.jboss.javax.management.timer.Timer, for those that want to stick with the jboss implementation. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
