[jboss-user] [EJB 3.0 Users] - Re: Timer not available

I don't think you need to store the handle. The timers are managed by the timer service. I don't hold them in my EJB which is a STSB and has the timer service injected. My STSB is only a facade for the service and provides methods to create a timer, change a timer or cancel a timer. I don't see any possibility to identify and access a certain timer by timerservice api. Of course I can get the whole list of active timers by calling timerService.getTimers(). But then I would have to iterate over the collection to find the timer instance I want to change. This isn't nice ;-). TimerHandles are defined to provide a direct acess to a timer and as mentioned in the ejb3 specification a handle must be able to achieve that (chapter 18): "The container must implement a timer handle to be usable over the lifetime of the timer." This default behaviour of the timer table conflicts with the specification. View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4259592#...
