[webbeans-dev] CDI Quartz Extension and SE Example

Hi, I know you're all really busy right now with the spec updates, but I've got a new extension for possible inclusion into WebBeans, plus a new example app for SE which uses it. == Quartz Extension == WebBeans-Quartz.zip The extension is a Quartz extension. It basically fires events @Every Second, @Every Minute and @Every Hour, which can be observed like so: public void updateSomething(@Observes @Every Hour hour) { // blah } On startup the extension first checks for the presence of observers for each type of event and if there are no observers for a particular type of event, no events will be scheduled. I intend to extend it by: 1) introducing a way to define arbitrary schedules (in annotations or in a properties file which is then referenced by name in an annotation - which can then be made typesafe by subclassing the annotation). Eg: package org.jboss.webbeans.extension.scheduler; public @interface Scheduled { String name(); } ----------- public @interface AfterHours extends Scheduled{ String name() default "afterHours"; } ----------- schedule.properties: afterHours=0 1 * * * * ----------- public void batchProcess(@Observes @AfterHours Schedule schedule) { ... } 2) Adding whatever is necessary to make this usable in EE environment. Any pointers? 3) Any other suggestions? == Memory Graph Example == MemoryGrapher.zip This is another Swing based example, which renders a graph of the VM's free memory, updating every second and calling garbage collection every minute using the above extension. It's a nice concise example of how to bootstrap and shutdown SE, how to observe events and how to use the injectable logger. Plus everyone loves a pretty graph! I know there is some obvious clean up work required, and maybe removing the name Quartz (?) - which I'm happy to do prior to checking in. What do you think? Pete.
